Mommy22alyns Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I finally finished reading Moby Dick. :party: Yes, I read the whole darn thing. You can all look forward to not hearing me complain about it any more! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawn E Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Now you deserve good rep for that, but unfortunately I'm out right now. Hopefully someone else will send some your way! Good for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Don't boo me but "Moby Dick" is one of my favorite books! Melville has such a way with language (yes, I know he uses a lot of it)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laughing lioness Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 you are a better woman than me. It's one of the few books I"ve never been able to finish. I've started it probably a 1/2 a dozen times so I know the first chapter quite well. but; I.just.can't.finish.it. Even when I taught high school lit- sad, huh. I'm a Melville flunky.

Sahamamama Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I tried to rep you, too, but I'm all out for the day. Sigh. Anyway, I think I remember SWB writing somewhere sometime -- that's really pinning it down, huh? -- that she herself has personally never finished Moby Dick, even though she's tried about a dozen times, or something like that. All that to say, you were in good company when you hadn't gotten through it -- my nemesis is Pilgrim's Progress. I try and I try and I try. Haven't gotten through it yet. Congratulations!

laughing lioness Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I do feel better knowing I'm standing with SWB!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kathy in MD Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 That's a whale of a tale to swallow! :) :) Good job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
