Well I finally managed to finish U2 on U2. I bought it back on Nov 12th (it is good having a blog so i can look those things up) so it has taken just over six months. Not sure why it took so long. I am usually a pretty fast reader and I enjoyed it very much. maybe it was just the bigness of it that overwhelmed me.

Now I can finally start Mandela, which Tom gave us for Christmas. I have been wanting to start it for ages but thought that two huge books going at once would be impossible. I hope it doesn’t take as long to read.
