one day more

One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. What it says on the tin. This had absolutely no chapter or scene change breaks which was really interesting. It's just a straight through day of life in a Soviet labor camp. An interesting and bleak POV novella. Maybe I'll read some more Russian stuff. I hear War & Peace is only like 1,400 pages.

My last read of the year and that totals up to 33 books, huzzah! My general goal is one book a month so this was a good year. I got very into finishing the Aubrey-Maturin series so that was like 14 books right there and I'm also enjoying my phase of reading new-to-me classics. I've got a bunch more earmarked for 2025 like Moby Dick and Jane Eyre. Any recommendations?

Happy new year to all!
