7/11/2025 - Quicksilver - 624
Carlos Ruiz Zafón - The Shadow of the Wind
878 pages finished! I actually wound up wearing a thumbprint into the cover. It feels weird to put it back on the shelf.
Nearing 400 pages and just past one of my all-time favorites, The Whisperer in Darkness.
82 pages into this behemoth, aiming for 7-10 pages a day. They're in chronological order, so it's interesting to see his work evolve.
Aiming to get through this 700+ page behemoth in 7-10 pages a day. It's in chronological order, so I'm curious to see how his work evolves.
Among the heftier tomes I've read and enjoyed (all >=500 pages):
Gone with the Wind
The Time Traveler's Wife
Roots
The Bible
Trying to get through The Count of Monte Cristo (liking so far, may join this list once finished) so I'll use that as my goal book.
