Silo has mixed feelings about Proust. On the one hand, I'm sitting still. On the other, I'm holding the book, making notes, and taking pictures, so I'm not petting as much as I ought to. (And of course, I'm also posting on Litsy, so I'm not reading as much as I ought to, either.)

I did not choose this book and if I had, I would have bailed fairly early. My book club chose it for our January book and that‘s the only reason I pushed, no, slogged through. It starts out well enough but then just seems to do a lot of meandering and didn‘t hold my attention. I would never made it through in print.
