"Some results" or "Appologies!"

First of all, an appology seems apporpriate... An appology for not posting anything for quite a long time. As I told you already, with the new year business became quite pressing, so reading kind of stopped for a moment. Only in the last two weeks I started again. First of all I finished

A son of the middle border 
 by Hamlin Garland


in preparation for his 1922 award-winning work

A daughter of the middle border 

which constitutes kind of a second volume.


Today I finally finished the first volume of the first pulitzer-winner

Julia Ward Howe 1819 - 1910

by Laura E. Richards

So you could say, I'm 50 % done. But that's not quite it. Both volumes cover 806 pages, that first volume only reaching 392 pages. So, to be exact I am 48,64 % done :)

To be honest, I am absolutely not satisfied with the volume. So it might be, I have to take a brake and read something else before starting the second volume. It's just a matter of fairness, because otherwise I couldn't rate the books in a fair way. So don't get angry with me. Just be patient! :)
