My channel surfing of books is accelerating. This has to be partly because of the boyfriend. He looks slightly amused sometimes when I'm sitting with books around me in his sofa, cold cup of coffee forgotten on the floor, skimming away for hours, settling on nothing. Last 4 days have read bits and pieces of Lord of the Rings, To the Lighthouse, Stupid White Men, The Greek Achievement, The Histories, Speaking for Vice plus jenn's fanfic Somewhere I Have Never Travelled. My inner snob would like me for God's sake to settle on something and just finish it. I can't. My brain stopped making over 40 page commitments years ago.
