@acbilson hello!

I really got stuck in Melville. I tried, with many hours, put that down a long time ago. Maybe I'll finish it one day

I thoroughly enjoyed The Brothers Karamazov, though that took me a few tries. I had the hardest time keeping track of all the characters going by different names. What solved this for me was reading Crime And Punishment on a whim. It's got a smaller cast of characters and then I was able tu track with Dostoyevski much better and I started over with The Brothers K and finished it.

Games with Littles.... That's difficult. My youngest is 3, but most of my older kids will play games now. The trouble is picking a game that they'll ALL agree to play. Our newest additions are Calico and Terraforming Mars.
