January 2021! What are you reading?

Welcome to 2021! What 1001 books are you reading to start off the new year?

This year I will finally tackle Infinite Jest and read a few other books in between and around it.

I am almost done with The Successor and I started the group read for this month, Martin Chuzzlewit.

I want to finish Pilgrimage this year (I read books 1 - 3 in 2019).

Happy 2021 everyone!

I am participating in a year long group read of The Romance of Three Kingdoms over atthe Category Challenge. I enjoyed The Water Margin last so I am looking forward to this one a lot.

I am listening to Zorba the Greek which I am enjoying quite a bit.

And apparently I am also reading The Three Kingdoms with the category challenge group.

After long time no 1001 I started In Search of Lost Time on Jan 1.

I am reading The Princess of Cleves as translated by another 1001 author, Nancy Mitford. It's a bit confusing but, once you get into it, very enjoyable.

I have been away from the 1001 books for a long time - those I read over the last year and a half just happened to be on the list and were not chosen because they were - but I will try to get into the groove again. Hopefully Ivanhoe will not bring take away my will to continue!

I'm reading Americanah by Chmamanda Ngozi Adichie, which I didn't realize was on the list until just now, when I looked it up on a whim. I was reading it regardless, so it's a bonus that it's on the list. And I love Adichie's writing.
