War and Peace Read-a-Long

Hello all my lovely bookworms! We are gearing up for the great read of the classic novel War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy. I will be making a reading schedule and it will tentatively begin on the first of August and may go through till November to make time to read and to discuss what is happening and make sure that, as readers, we have a good understanding of what is happening. This will possibly be met with a weekly ZOOM chat to discuss the section we read.  Stay tuned for the reading schedule and dates of Zoom Chats.
