Saint Thomas Aquinas | G. K. Chesterton

so-so

Tedious. Read the last ten pages first before deciding to take the plunge.

My eyes start hurting after reading a few paragraphs 🙈. I‘ll have to buy another magnifying glass 🤓🧐

A friend came over and wanted to see the book with the smallest print. I don‘t know if this one is actually it, but if not then it‘s darn close, lol.

Have any of you even considered tackling this sucker?! 😆

Cortg Not-at-all. It looks miserable. 5y

BookFreakOut @Tamra @AmyG I feel lucky that I even got to go! I only learned about it yesterday, today was the last day, and we happened to already be traveling 2 hours to where it was for a graduation party! 7y

BookFreakOut @ladym30 I was making so many little excited noises, you'd think I was cuddling kittens or something! 😄 7y

ladym30 @BookFreakOut 😂😂😂 7y

ElyssaReads Nice! I‘m a little sad at myself for not going to the one in KC but my bank account is probably happy about it. 7y

BookFreakOut @ElyssaReads You would not believe what a good sport Kendall was, TWO HOURS and not a word of complaint (he got to pick lunch after lol). I'd love to go with you next year, I found out about this literally the day before and we were already coming up for his cousin's graduation party. 7y
