Hey blog readers, I’m using this blog to solicit a bit of reading advice. Of course, I’m asking for a friend.
Today’s post is about challenging reads.
What are your personal strategies for reading a book that makes you feel a little stupid?
My friend clearly knows there are books out there that aren’t always the right fit for a particular reader. It makes perfect sense. We all have different sensibilities when it comes to literature and that’s cool.
But what happens if something is a classic, and award winner–a truly notable book and you WANT to read it–but it’s hard. And the more you try, the more you think there’s a whole level of intelligent readers out there that have been floating just out of your friend’s reach.
That friend knows that reading this book WILL be educational and enlightening in a variety of different ways, but that doesn’t make said book any easier to read. *sigh*
One way or another, this book will be read. My friend is stubborn about pursuing growth, but just wondering–asking for a friend–if you have any suggestions for making difficult reads easier and more accessible.
Share your tips and if you can’t help me, maybe you have a friend who can…
