The Black Tower
P.D. James
As always, I come away from P.D. James thinking "meh." I just don't know why she is so popular. I got this book last spring (or maybe even the spring before? Of 2010?) on the infamous day when I was super hung over and bought a whole bunch of books from the bargain trolleys outside Harvard Bookstore. I finally got around to reading it a while ago (last month? longer?) because I had nothing else to read and needed a paperback. Didn't really enjoy it, although I vaguely remember it improving (a little) as it went along, but I did apparently flag several pages, so I should go through them... Hmm, apparently all just words I wanted to look up.
New(-ish) words!
Accidie
Pudency
Rebarbative
Grumous
This last one I actually don't know at all, and context wasn't even that helpful; the rest I was familiar with, but didn't really "know."
