Ah, I hope to finally get around to that by the end of the week. I have a couple of review copies I want to get out of the way first (since the obligation is hanging over me) and then I'll get to Madame Bovary.
 
I can't quite believe this, but I haven't finished a single book in March. :eek: I mean, I knew I was in a slump, but that's just ridiculous. :eek:

I started and gave up on The Book of Fate by Brad Meltzer.

At the moment I'm in the middle of reading The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards, and The Rise and Fall of the Third Chimpanzee by Jared Diamond.

Let's hope April is better. :rolleyes:
