Adding Moll Flanders by Daniel Defoe to My Current Reading

As the season prepares to shift to Autumn, I get more reflective and introspective.

I made an impulse buy of a kindle edition by Alma Classics of Daniel Defoe's Moll Flanders.

This is my first read of this 300 year old classic. Publication date 1722.

Alma Classics Edition

Interestingly enough, this kindle version doesn't have indented paragraphs. It's a bit weird, but I've adjusted.

I'm about 20% into this novel and I am IN LOVE with this story and Defoe's writing.

Most know Defoe from Robin Crusoe, but I've read anything by him since middle school.

This picking up of Moll Flanders is a good reminder to me of why I love being a mood reader. I really enjoy just letting the wind blow and following my intuition about what I want to pick up.  

Currently, I'm only focusing on The Guermantes Way (Volume III of In Search of Lost Time by Proust) and Moll Flanders. This is a delightful combination.

I am always in awe of how great literature can shift and shape me at certain points of my life. 

Have you picked up anything in the spur of the moment?

Happy reading my slow living friends.
