You're plugging away! :) What do you think so far? The book pictured is the same edition that I own... and I need to read it at some point.

It's actually surprisingly readable and good! I'm not sure if it's because of this translation but it's going along smoothly!
That's encouraging! This makes me wonder if I should look for the same translation of Anna Karenina... I'm going to start reading Anna soon, and I'm torn between the B&N classics edition that I have, or springing for the edition by these translators... Decisions!
I read their translations for both
and
and felt they were both really well done. Of course, I can't compare to any other editions because these are the ones I read, but I can definitely recommend them.The ebook versions of them are cheaper. I have both the real book and the ebook of W&P and the Kindle edition cost 12.99 i'm pretty sure. Not too bad, really.
Although, I am sure that the B&N edition is well done too. I just read their edition of The Moonstone and I thought it was very good. hahaha...guess I'm not helping you with the decision making... ;)
Nice! I'm doing #3 this year, and probably also 4 and 5, but I'll might try to hold back and wait on 5 until next year... Heh, yeah right. :)
I know, there is no rush since i think Book 6 isn't due out for awhile? I think I've probably have been getting to them about once a year too.
