And I didn't like "slow" beginnings at that age either, but now I savor them as a building up of the world of the story. It's something we appreciate more with age, I think--the young are not "big picture" thinkers.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06784890975490896640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6308674271138009565.post-10818352619199500852012-04-10T15:39:31.669-05:002012-04-10T15:39:31.669-05:00Thanks for your comment about my daughter on my po...Thanks for your comment about my daughter on my post. She also sort of struggles with classics. She'll be in high school next year, and she'll have to read more. But as much of a reader as I was, I didn't enjoy them in high school either.<br /><br />She's going to read Jane Eyre this summer to get ready for the Mother Daughter Bookclub series' next book, BUT I recently reread it and found the beginning to be very very slow, so we'll see if she manages.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03789250398792504412noreply@blogger.com
