@gutenberg_org i have many many #ePubs on my tablet from your wondrous site. several of these are Woolfs. i really really struggle to read her. just a few days ago i had my latest failure; only 35 pages into The Waves, i chose to end my misery & abandon it. i hate giving up on books, but Woolf for me is impenetrable, alas. 🤯

"who's afraid of virginia woolf?" -- sadly, me, it seems. 🥺

@gutenberg_org ta. fwiw, fyi, these are my #Woolf's in my #Calibre , which mirrors what's on my tablet.

each time i attempt a Woolf, succeed or fail, i need a few months to "cleanse my palate" by reading other authors, then returning to try another of hers. next time i cycle back to her, i shall take your advice & try this one. many thanks... & thanks so much also for all you do!
