Freeloading Phill and ...

Three Years in the Reading...

Well today one finally finished one's reading of Tolstoy's War & Peace.

Or as I believe it should be called:
War & Peace & Peace & War & War & Peace & Peace & Peace & Peace & Peace & Peace & Peace & Peace & War & War & Peace & Long and Rambling Meta-Physical Second Epilogue.
In Summary: I tend to agree with  FridgePower's assessment of Tolstoy's work - needs more explosions and less Neighbours.

It has been one's in-between ebook reading - usually on one's phone - for occasions when one is without one's main read of the moment.

Still, despite the reading being a bit piecemeal, it did scratch one's Napoleonic itch somewhat.

It also gives an excellent feeling of what it would really have been like being involved in the Napoleonic Wars for the common upper-class aristocrat.
