This morning I finished reading Crime and Punishment. Next on the list: The Grapes of Wrath. The books appear in no particular order other than that I decided to read first the copies I already own. I plan to read the stuff sitting on my shelves before I head for the library and the half-price book store.

If I had done one thing differently I would have kept a list of characters for Crime and Punishment. Dostoevski's characters have three names, and sometimes the author refers to them by the last name, sometimes the first, and sometimes the first and middle. Very easy to lose track of who's who! Still, what a story!
