The little engine that could

I started reading Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson in April.  I knew that it would be a long haul to the finish.  It’s August now and I am STILL reading it.  I am almost 650 pages in (out of just over 900). The story is excellent, but a little scatter-brained at times.  The math can also be difficult to follow at points.

This isn’t the only book that I’ve been reading this entire time.  I’ve read a few others in the meantime (when I’ve needed a break) and listened to a ton.  I’m sure that if I only read Cryptonomicon, I would be finished by now.

Anyway, I look forward to seeing how the book ends.  I have really enjoyed the story.  I am really glad that I started to read it.
