Crime and Punishment

I finally finished the book I started on our honeymoon! Only took me two months to get through, not that it was in any was unenjoyable, but mostly because I read so slowly. The author is also extremely verbose, apparently, as Josh told me, because in Russia they were paid by the word, so authors embellished needlessly in order to have enough money to live.
I have every intention of reviewing the book, but I need a little time for it to sit with me before I am ready. There was so much crammed into 400 short pages that I cannot process it in only an hour or two. Check back, though (which, obviously I have to in order to review the book, and Josh, you more than likely will), because I will review soon.
I'll also confess, that reading has not been as boring as I thought it would be. The break I took after grad school has probably helped this, now I can read for fun and nobody is going to quiz me on how well I comprehended what I read.
There has been no thought on what I will pick up next, but I am sure either something on my shelf or on Josh's Kindle. I should probably be a nice wife, though, and give you back your Kindle, Josh, so you can read something. Okay, I'll keep that in mind...
