Sassenach - if you like I could give it a try, but i give no promises on the quality. lana  for volunteering - the chapter summaries are great fun, and no one is ever critical as ultimately it is our interpretation of the book and all opinions are valid.... The idea of the readalong is to read one chapter each week - of course you can read faster if you wish, and complete the book ahead of schedule, however, last year I found that reading one chapter per week and then discussing it, put less pressure on me to finish the whole book and then discuss it... So, the analysis of chapter one will start on January 23rd -Ahead of schedule I will pm all the volunteers with their chapter summary dates, and will add the dates to the forum calendar. Looking forward to reading this with you all
