i dunno. i went home from work today feeling decidedly crappy and slept solid from 3pm until 8pm. need to stay awake now to sleep through the night and feeling very sad about missing another rehearsal.
i'm about halfway through Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell, and i'm plodding on with the grim determination that i applied to The Witching Hour - i can see the edges of something great here, and i'm sure that if i read on i'll be rewarded. right? right?*
meanwhile, i've got a list of other thick novels i'd like to read. i'm tempted to ditch it for other things, but i've put in the time now and i know that if i stop i won't remember enough to pick it up again without starting over.

so, peanut gallery...

*The Witching Hour never paid off. i can't believe i actually tried reading the sequels in hopes of the story i wanted appearing. those are hours of my life i'll never get back.

i've also actually read books from both ends towards the middle - read first chapter, read last chapter, read second chapter, read penultimate chapter, read third chapter, read antepenultimate chapter, and so on.
