Well that was a long break! I never intended to have such a long pause in this project, but things just happen. My best explanation to myself is that reading from the list began to feel more like a chore than the exciting literary adventure it had started out as. I feel like I've wasted nine months of page turners that matter but I am set on just moving forward from here. Luckily I was able to read some amazing books that are not on the list as well as finish a couple of University courses, so I suppose that saying it was time wasted is not entirely accurate.
So I reread the first of the three volumes of Pride and Prejudice and was hooked once again. I love Lizzy and aspire to be like her. As it stands, things are not looking positive for the Bennett family. So far no daughters are married and Jane looks to have lost the man she loved.
A word that caught my attention is OSTENTATIOUS meaning 'characterized by or given to pretentious or conspicuous show in an attempt to impress others'. I will make certain that I use it in the next couple of days.
Back on track!
