– Anna Karenina (1873 - 1877) by Leo Tolstoy
– The Brothers Karamazov (1879 - 1880) by Fyodor Dostoyevsky - Pages and pages of pointless, depressing nonsense. It’s like this dude is a frustrated priest, and wants to blog on speculative philosophical ideas like free will, gods, hell, etc… and built a novel around the idea of combining a collection of pointless speculative philosophical rants into a book. I’m only up to file 41 of 96 and I’ve been sick of this book for probably the last 10-15 files. This guy, really drives home Stephen Hawking’s point that “philosophy is dead”. Just as I started this book I was talking to someone that was taking a course on Tolstoy, so I downloaded Anna Karenina (I had read this before years ago) and was going to re-read it right after “The Brothers”. But… Tolstoy ain’t no bundle of laughs either, so I think I’m going to bypass Tolstoy and move on in the queue. Also, the person that was taking the Tolstoy course with online has sort of disappeared, so it’s not like there’s a benefit of reading the same book as someone you’re currently talk with.
– Doors of the Night (1922) by Frank L. Packard - Comically bad. As the story progresses and the reader say over and over gain “Billy Kane” I can’t help but hear “Bob Dole”. I couldn’t finish this. Just plain horrible.

– The Haunted Hotel, A Mystery of Modern Venice (1878), by Wilkie Collins. Read by Nathalie J.
– Falkner (1837) by Mary Shelley. Read by various. This is NOT my kind of writing. Shelley does not move the plot along. She spends words and words and more words explaining some feeling, in ridiculous dramatic fashion. Once I found myself zoning out only to come back and realize she’s still droning on about the same irrelevant thing.
