Today I listened to 05:05:55 of the audio book, which leaves me ready to continue from the second to bottom paragraph on page 139 of Gösta Berling's saga. I am not certain I will ever *like* audio books (growing up with a hearing problem means that I *want* to see the speaker and read their lips), I think that it is totally worth doing this in terms of my actually learning how the sounds of Swedish relate to the printed words...

However, I am not certain I will ever get used to the fact that the two letter word "De" is pronounced as though it contained all three of these letters: "Dom"

some highlights of our story so far )
This is where I paused the book today, grateful that my dad wasn't mad like hers is, and grateful that I do not live in a time when women are property and men are the only ones with any rights.
