Only 150 pages left. It has been a far more exciting book than I'd imagined.

finally done with it, so boring

It was best of times, and it was the worst of times.

Hmmm. Heard a lot of it.

Gosh!!! I'm half way with the books, just amazing!!

So far the book is good but I'm not really liking this Monsieur the Marquis one bit

Ive read the reviews of this book and it sound very interesting. I should begin my reading :D

Pretty good so far, since I've gotten my kindle & now iPad I have been reading lots of classic novels. Why you may ask? Simple they are free on Amazon.com & I've never read them. Now I have loads of books on both devices to keep me busy for a couple of years. Also on Facebook everyday free books are being posted by different apps/pages most are current books.

Best of times, worst of times. Wish Dickens would make up his mind. So far very impressed

Reading this for the first time. I must say, I do enjoy it already and I'm only 15 pages in.

The Kindle is a great place to catch up on the classics, usually for free.

"I wish you to know that you have been the last dream of my soul... since I knew you, I have been troubled by a remorse that I thought would never reproach me again, and have heard whispers from old voices impelling me upward, that I thought were silent for ever. I have had unformed ideas of striving afresh, beginning anew, shaking off sloth and sensuality, and fighting out the abandoned fight. A dream, all a dream, that ends in nothing.. " - Charles Dickens, 'A tale of two cities' <3

Just read first chapter. I can see this is going to be a interesting time

Just finished. Its so sad..:(

"It was the worst of times."

The Nick Dutch reading club begins... Free on #kindle so why not...

just finished chapter 2

(in audio book format) in an attempt to shake a song off my head

Remember reading this long time back. Dickens best book...

Working my way through all the Dickens I'm pretty sure I read before....

Thanks Miss Valdonna, you classy bitch :)

Come on Tristan, stay interested

There're prototypes of main characters in the movie:
Charles Darnay - Bruce Wayne, Ernest Defarge - Bane, Mirand Tate - Madame Defarge, John Barsad - John Blake

TDKR Story Ark revealed

Really enjoying this the second time around

I hope I can get into this soon!

I'm reading this partly because it seems to be Nolan's inspiration for The Dark Knight Rises :). I'm also refined like that.

IT was the best of times,
IT was the worst of times,
it was the age of wisdom,
it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief,
it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light,
it was the season of Darkness,
it was the spring of hope,
it was the winter of despair,
we had everything before us,
we had nothing before us,
we were all going direct to Heaven,
we were all going direct the other way
— in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

Gotta set this one aside for awhile. Have to read some non-fiction now.

Just downloaded to my Kindle...1st of the classics I intend to read/re-read
