I just finished The Brothers Karamazov. It was an excellent book and I recommend it but it does take a LONG time to read and since Dostoevsky was paid by word, some parts are tedious.
It reminded me of Les Miserable which I read a few years ago. One of my all time favorite books, also time consuming, and you may have to skip the “stunning description of the Battle of Waterloo,” but it is so worth it.

The three fish I won at the fair died, as is the usual course of things, within a week of my winning them.
But now! Now I have a betta. His name is Montu, he is very pretty and I will keep him alive. Montu is the Eqyptian god of war, and a betta is a fighting fish, so that means the odds are good that he’ll try to live, right?
Right?
Montu is dead. I have no idea why. My next attempt will not be for awhile yet.
There’s going to be an eclipse somewhere out in the pacific ocean in 2009, but it’s path intersects China. I have no idea how to go about getting to China, especially since I want to go with friends, but I most definatly want to go.
