It's not about reading to impress anyone else. It's about reading for the sheer enjoyment of it all...
This book was chosen by a member of my local book club because it was recommended to her and one that she had always wanted to read. I was not even familiar with the title, although I have certainly heard of the author. For me the story doesn't really pick up steam until about the half-way point, and then I had a hard time putting it down until I finished. Loved it! So fun to discover classics like this!
