We did one a couple of years ago and called it #MiddleMarchMadness! I can't find the link to the feed, though. It would be a lot of fun to revisit. I'm pretty much always up for rereading Middlemarch.

Too bad I missed this. I need to get back to the Blue Sky book-club-read-alongs. #MiddlemarchMadness was fab.

Probably a three-way tie. The book I’m trying to reread every year is “Riddley Walker.”
“Persuasion” hit me hard in my late teens. (A level English Lit set text.)
I finally read “Middlemarch,” last year, as part of #MiddlemarchMadness. 🛖
Please don’t make me choose one.

I’m confident I’m will! 🙂 My Partner-in-Crime is a big fan.
It took me years to get around to Middlemarch (during last year’s #MiddlemarchMadness 🛖). This may be my year of the Brontës. One big novel by each sister is my goal.

A can of “Ishm-ale” from Moby Dick Brewing Company
I was saving this for the end #AMonthOfDick, but I fell too far behind. Same with #MiddleMarchMadness. But I managed to keep up with #HotFrankSummer every day, so now I’m celebrating finishing all three books. 🐋 🛖 🔩

Passage in which the protagonist, a young man of wealth, arrives late to his law-firm job and realizes that no one cares because no one was buying his charade of working anyway.
I'm reading "The Age of Innocence" as a kind of follow-up to #MiddleMarchMadness and wow this could have been written today.

After challenging myself to write every day in February I decided to do #MiddlemarchMadness to keep the daily challenge train going. Since finishing Middlemarch on April 25th I've begun a new challenge, studying Spanish daily in anticipation of a family trip to Spain this summer!

And so thank you to everyone who organised and contributed to #MiddlemarchMadness. It was a joy to revisit after such a long time away, made extra-special by following everyone's reflections. And yes, I think it's the greatest novel in the English language. 🛖

I must admit, now that I am in the home stretch of #MiddlemarchMadness, that every time I read a sentence like this about Caleb Garth I hear "business" in the voice of Sam the Eagle.

#MiddlemarchMadness ch 84. “Dear Celia,” said Dorothea, with tender gravity, “if you don’t ever see me, it will not be my fault.” Right on, Dodo! They're all acting like Dodo is marrying to insult them, while she's just following her course. Right fucking on.

“The growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”

Fighting for my life to finish the last two hundred pages of Middlemarch today, really putting the “madness” in #MiddlemarchMadness 🛖

#MiddlemarchMadness 🛖 Was I the only person whose heart broke, when reading Fred Vincy's closing remarks about Farebrother ... in the past tense? Despite there being no textual evidence to support this, we all know Farebrother finally found love before he died. Right?
Right?

"Her full nature, like that river of which Cyrus broke the strength, spent itself in channels which had no great name on the earth. But the effect of her being on those around her was incalculably diffusive ..." (Anyone still dislike Dorothea? 🥹 😢)(3/3) #MiddlemarchMadness 🛖

"Certainly those determining acts of her life ... were the mixed result of young & noble impulse struggling amidst the conditions of an imperfect social state, in which great feelings will often take the aspect of error, & great faith the aspect of illusion." #MiddlemarchMadness 🛖 (1/3)
