Just sharing another book. Enjoy!

“Against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars, five aristocratic families in Russia are transformed by the vagaries of life, by war, and by the intersection of their lives with each other. Hundreds of characters populate War and Peace, many of them historical persons, including Napoleon and Tsar Alexander I, and all of them come to life under Tolstoy’s deft hand.”

    It’s very good. Worth a read. Mind you, it took me 2 years to read and I took a lot of breaks to read other stuff in between because I felt like I didn’t want to treat this as work. But the story keeps calling you back.
