What author did you read a book by and didn’t like, but gave them another chance and loved it?
I’m so glad I gave Edith Wharton another chance. I read Ethan Frome and thought it was fine. On a whim I picked up The Age of Innocence and fell in love. Now I’m buying anything I can by her. I recently read The House of Mirth, and can confirm she is one of my favorite authors now. Anybody have a similar experience with an author?
Yep! Except for me I tried to read the hobbit multiple times and couldn’t do it, then went on to lord of the rings years later and loved it, and then came back to the hobbit. LOTR continues to be one of my fav series. I will say the movies helped a lot to get me to read the books, cuz I had to read and watch FOTR and since I’m not a fast reader/procrastinator, reading 100 pages of tolkien at 8pm the night before it’s due is just… not gonna work. Didn’t remember anything but I said one day i wanted to reread the book at my own pace. Which I did and it was 10000% worth it. Such a cozy read :D
