Ok, well for title translated into English I am most likely going to read Anna Karenina because I already own it and have for a while now. Searching through my personal library to match things I've got with what I need to read.

Love the counter, I'm going to have to get me one of those! I love Anna Karenina. good choice! It was a bit confusing at first with all the Russian names, but I really got into it after a while.

Just got a copy of Zombie Spaceship Wasteland and have decided it's going to be my non fiction entry. Now I just need to get the time to start Anna Karenina.

I've started Anna Karenina, but it's slow going for me. My mind seems oddly reluctant to dive in. Also almost half way through Dune- which is amazing!
