Europe: 19-28

Two months in Europe caused this to happen:
19: Three Men in a Boat, Jerome K. Jerome
On my iPad. Hilarious. It's one of those classics people (in this case my mom) have been telling me about for ages. I tried in junior high and was bored two pages in. Things change.
20: Cards on the Table, Agatha Christie
In Sweden, on planes, busses, and at Irina's in Stockholm.
21: Kafka on the Shore, Haruki Murakami
Beginning good, ending a little weak.
22: Het Lijk Zonder Hoofd, Robert van Gulik
Krantenstrip.
23: Moord in de Vergrendelde Kamer, Robert van Gulik
Nog een krantenstrip.
24: A Short History of Tractors in Ukraina, Marina Lewycka
Funny (in writing) but frustrating (in subject).
25: Eminent Dogs, Dangerous Men, Donald McCaig
Worthless writing, interesting subject. This guy is a full-time author?
26: Halssnoer en Kalebas, Robert van Gulik
More van Gulik.
27: Murder on the Links, Agatha Christie
"Hell", said the Duchess. Hastings is a complete idiot—I much prefer Watson to Hastings.
28: De Nacht van de Tijger, Robert van Gulik
And one more.
