Brain exercis

I try to keep my English vocabulary in shape by reading books in English using my Kindle E-reader.   This last book was a tough one – Moby Dick or The Wale by Herman Melville.  Both I and the Kindle Thesaurus were lost a couple of times.  Interesting book tough – after 96% of the book Captain Ahab and his crew finally came close to Moby Dick and are now trying to hunt him down.  It took me almost three months to read it.  I will try something less “Al dente” next time.
