![]() ![]() ![]() I did find the pace a little slow (the book is over 700 pages, maybe I just haven’t read such a long book in a while) and oddly, it’s not really all plot or all character… now how to explain that. Somehow, although The Eustace Diamonds is the third in Trollope’s Palliser series, I kept the title in mind because Nancy Pearl (famous Seattle librarian and author of Book Lust and More Book Lust) recommended it (or at least I think she did) and after trying and failing to get into The Way We Live Now, I finally bought this one and then, with Eva at A Striped Armchair mentioning reading 600 pages of Trollope in 24 hours, I was determined to finally read some myself. (Later, when the rain turned to snow, a Harry Potter movie became necessary…) ![]() As the thick grey rain came down today, I settled in with a cup of hot chocolate to finish my first Anthony Trollope novel, The Eustace Diamonds. ![]()
