Book: Show us a book you started reading but never finished.
It's not that these books are unbearable to read per se, it's more the
fact that I have the attention span of a gnat. And textbooks and course readers and lecture notes take priority these days. I will eventually
finish them though. I swear!
Everything is Illuminated I've been trying to read for a good year now at least. I've almost finished it a couple times, the closest I came was last year during my reading week trip to Mexico. Then school and work started up again and I had to put it aside for months. It's a pretty dense book in terms of events so it's not just something I can pick up where I left off, I always have to start from somewhere near the beginning to reacquaint myself. The one phrase I semi-regularly utilize from the book is "Stop spleening me!", but only around my coworker Elan cos I know she's read the book and gets what it means. Elan was the one who lent me Time Traveler's Wife... I guess basically what I'm getting at is she's my idol and my life goal is to read all the cool books she has read. Haha.
