Okay, maybe we bit off more than we could chew or at least comfortably eat in one sitting in choosing to read the Aeneid by Virgil. Normally Donna and I choose books we can read in at least a week's time, but I am now on week two with the Aeneid and I am only half way through it.
In order to understanding Virgil's history-mixed-with-myth writings, I have digressed into a history of Rome and a study of the Greek and Roman Gods and Goddesses. Virgil in the Aeneid writes about all of these things, and I was getting a bit frustrated trying to figure it all out.
After Aeneid we will be reading "Common Sense" by Glenn Beck and "Timeline" by Michael Crichton.

Sounds like fun. Maybe I can jump on and read with you guys??
We are just about ready to start reading Timeline. We'd enjoy having your input!
