    1. I am not so fond of Sense and Sensibility either. My favourites are Pride and Prejudice, Persuasion and Northanger Abbey. S&S was ok, but I did not like Mansfield Park.

  7. For once I did finish my book: Death Comes to the Archbishop by Willa Cather. I wanted to read it for quite some time, but it was not at all what I expected. It is beautifully written and you warm to the characters, and the description of nature. But, I found the story rather boring and not really holding anything together.

    1. I read ‘Death Comes to the Archbishop’ by Willa Cather. Having looked forward to it for a long time, the story was not what I thought it was. I found it rather boring, but the writing good. A few persons have recommended My Antonia so I will see if I go on with that one.
      She had a lot of descriptions of nature in this one as well.

      1. This is my next Cather, but now that I’ve read My Antonia and O Pioneers! I’d recommend those first to Death Comes to the Archbishop. I hope you do give her another try with either of those.

        1. I will put My Antonia on the list. I got several recommendations of this one. If I like it I will continue with O Pioneers! You are right, she rights beautifully.

    1. I read this ages ago, and mostly remember that the main guy was crazy and not so nice. Maybe I would look differently at it, if I read it today. I think I can agree with your review.
