I'm going to have to get a study guide, as I haven't a clue what is happening so far!<br /><br />I think I'm going to have to get a copy of the book soon though, as Daily Lit doesn't really make it easy to flick back to various sections that need re-reading. Let's hope we can make it to the end!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698068501004755678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837109525874407713.post-84493583346903985932009-06-22T20:36:15.138+01:002009-06-22T20:36:15.138+01:00Claire, this is the first read-along that I am par...Claire, this is the first read-along that I am participating in but I do intend to take it my own pace and see how it goes.<br /><br />Simon, I'm glad to hear it.
