finishing

i normally finish every book i start. sometimes tho, it' just doesn't work out. i always feel really guilty about it though. :(

stuff i've started but eventually gave up on:
anna karenina - boring and confusing after so many attempted starts
the jungle - not bad, just not too interesting. will definitely eventually finish
peter the great - way boring. i'm SO not into reading that much war strategery
