Finally finished! This is the longest book I've read in a long time. 800 pages (with an extra 65 of footnotes, so my percentages have not been true!)

Time to push through to the end of this one, now that it's the weekend. The pace is picking up a tiny bit and it's taken a darker turn. Something is happening.

200 pages in, it finally started to get more interesting. It's finally more about magic than about a boring, selfish old dude. Thankfully he messed up once, and also Mr. Strange showed up, mixing things up a little bit.

Slow-moving so far. I don't find Mr. Norrell very appealing - hopefully more interesting characters will appear soon. I realize that 85 pages out of 865 is barely the beginning so am trying to be patient.
