Why it's taking me forever to finish consuming this — 2 years ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

It’s the second time that I try reading this book and although I think I appreciate it more than last time, it is still really, really not a book for me. Like the poster before me said beutifully, it’s one long snoozefest! But, I hate not finishing a book. So I picked it up while going to Hampton Beach with friends – it’s around 10 hours drive, so I thought that reading an American classic about travelling while travelling in America was the perfect setting. BUT IT WAS STILL A BORE. And I came back like three weeks ago. And I am still not at half the book. And I have tons of fascinating books to read but I am stuck reading this stupid book (the fact that it’S 50 years old this year is not helping my guilt of not-reading). So I won’t give up. BUT IT WILL BE PAINFUL.
