I thought it was -- I'd have been sorry if you, who first suggested the read, would end up liking it less than the rest of us, because I'm really happy with the choice we made.
Though, yeah. That description of the execution ... was certainly not just a bit de trop, however much it may have been based on historical sources.
Oh I'm sure it was very historical. It was just more than was strictly necessary. I hope to like it all the way through. It might go faster if I read in French more, too. It might be a good idea to wait till after BL-opoly to read another one though.
That sounds fine -- and we'll have another whole month between BL-opoly and Halloween Bingo (in case you should be doing that one, too). So we should be work in the next French buddy read after the end of BL-opoly fairly easily.
ETA: Or Lindsey Davis, if you'd prefer doing that one next. Either is fine.
