Anyone else read War and peace?
I feel alone in my love for this amazing book

Errrrr....no need to feel alone. Lots of people have read it. You can read their reviews right here on Librarything, and I'll bet there's more than a few groups devoted to this book and to Tolstoy. You just have to search.

I love the book myself, I read it a long time ago and I will read it again sometime, I was in my teens when I read it so and now I am in my early 30's so it is time I guess, well soon anyway.

It is the only book that has ever made my cry so far.

Also I can recommend Sergei Bundarchuk's beautiful movie adaptation "Voyna I mir".

Several of the folks in the 75 Books Challenge group did a group read of War and Peace earlier this year. Here's the start of their threads on the book:

I'm currently reading it. I'm about 500 page into it.

I read it when I was fourteen, just to impress people. I only vaguely remember scenes and characters, and I wasn't able to appreciate what made it a classic at that age. I should have saved it for later in life. There's too much else to read and I'm too slow a reader ever to tackle it again, but I did enjoy it.

What a great book. I really prepped myself before reading it, however. I watched two of the movie versions, listened to the abridged BBC recording, and probably even (God forbid!) checked out Sparknotes. My preparation paid off; I really enjoyed it and had no problem with the various characters. They sort themselves out as the book progresses, any-who...
