What Members Thought
Goethe is an author that I have always wanted to read, but I have not known anything about him. I enjoyed this book. I enjoyed his thoughts about the human condition and nature, more than his relationship with Charlotte. I am glad I went into this work knowing nothing about it.
Lost my nerve with this one. I guess I just wasn't in the mood of reading someone whining all the time. I couldn't even concentrate on some of the lovely quotable sentences. Not my type of book at all.
