This was a very busy week for me, hardly got time to read 100 or so pages. Still reading Grave Peril by Jim Butcher. Book 3 of The Dresden Files.

What about all of you, what have you been reading?

Yeah reading the book, I can see how the words from then have evolved to words from now, and it's very rewarding when I'm able to understand a verse without any help from the guide.

Yeah, it must be. I sometimes have trouble understanding words of current teenagers, so understanding something from 12th century must definitely be rewarding.
