Members update

In case you didn't already know, life goes on. We've lost one member for certain (Gaelicgrl) (maybe others?). Meantime we've officially gained Lelia. Sam's gone to Spain for 3 weeks, but promises to check in on us when he returns. Myself, I leave in the morning for 10 days or so, and won't have internet access.

I've never bothered to slap a counter on this blog, but I've stumbled across a number of mentions of this site across le bloguemonde. Rest assured that if other people aren't reading Middlemarch along with us, they're at least reading about our trials and tribulations.

There is also the occasional colourful commentary I don't know how to alert you to.

Enjoy Book V.
"The Dead Hand" — what a great title.
Just one little line to tell us Rosamond's pregnant?!
That codicil's a bit much, don't you think? Confound Casaubon!
Do you think they're in love already?
And what about Mary and Farebrother — do you figure it turns out for the best?
Did anyone else freak out at the last couple paragraphs? I was stunned.

I am still in and actually caught up. I started Book 7 last night and am feeling much better about my progress. The lagging behind was starting to get to me.

You haven't lost me; I just can't keep pace with the schedule due to stretching myself as thinly as possible. I STILL read Middlemarch and I'll finish it. Who knows? Maybe I'll catch up! I check in on the blog.
