Book 3: Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton.

This novel: 77 (Although it feels like quite a bit more.)
Total: 664
Title: Ethan Frome
Author: Edith Wharton
Publisher: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1991.
Rating: 2.5

The year has not started out well, book wise.
Etan Frome is bout a man who is helplessly in love with a woman- Mattie. Mattie is Zeena's -Ethan's wife- young cousin. She came to help her sickly cousin in her time of need. *SPOILERS* Eventually, Mattie and Ethan decide to commit suicide by sledding into an Elm tree. This plan backfire's and the couple is left helpless and crippled. Zeena is left to take care of the two. Sucks to be Zeena.
