War and Peace (Revised) | Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy

Last minute joining the #whiskyandperseverance read along of War and Peace. Hopefully, I‘ll be caught up by the end of the week.

I‘ve always wanted to read this Russian classic, and a chapter a day is the perfect way. Plus I have a whiskey cast, so it‘s almost the law I join in!

War and Peace: Translated by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky | Leo Tolstoy

The fascination Tolstoy has in describing all of his female characters with “beautiful faces and tiny mustaches” is kind of beyond me. Things no one tells you about War and Peace…. #tolstoy #warandpeace #classiclit #canonlit #catsandbooks #cats #catsoflitsy

RaeLovesToRead Awww kitty! 🥰🥰 I forgot about the mustaches! 😄🙈 3y

Aaronofthe Aside from the life changing ideas about how the world doesn't care about you and you're just a minuscule cog in an immense machine.. I mostly just remember a cop being tied to a bear and thrown in a river.. and a rather sweet marriage proposal.. but it's been a while since I read it.. I could perceive it differently now. 2y

Jasper - Book Two of the Tudor Trilogy | Tony Riches

Book #17 of 2021 was book 2 of Tony Riches‘ Tudor Trilogy. I really enjoyed this one. The writing was a lot more smooth & descriptive. The details about Jasper‘s life were fascinating!

Watching the first episode of this series now that I've finished the book

So far I like it, but I'm not sure when I'll have time to watch the rest of it. There are four episodes and each is just under 2 hours.

so-so

Yesterday was the last day of my school year and today I finished this book as I worked around the house and enjoyed a little evening hammock time! It was definitely worth the time I put into reading and listening, but it only gets a so-so rating because it required a lot of effort to keep reading/listening to some sections. There were parts I truly enjoyed and some that just drug on.
