Maybe I just need to keep pushing through. I don't think it's on my Classics Club list, so I'll have to tackle it again later in life.

I liked it, but so much of it is fuzzy that I don't know why.

Like I told Amanda above, it was the wrong time to power through it and everything that happened at the end of the school year is why i forgot so much of it already!Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420476898132383974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-46869022303573495502012-07-06T00:29:41.183-04:002012-07-06T00:29:41.183-04:00Wish i could have been more informative!Wish i could have been more informative!Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420476898132383974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-56730143298464087462012-07-06T00:29:26.991-04:002012-07-06T00:29:26.991-04:00Ha.

I've been haunted by that failure ever since... I still have a copy of the book, but haven't managed to bring myself to attempt it again. There's another Heller novel on my shelf, called God Knows, which I think I'll try to read pretty soon... at least then I can get some Heller under my belt.Roof Beam Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06792884580084363046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-66350254033331630262012-07-05T11:09:32.937-04:002012-07-05T11:09:32.937-04:00I loved this one and as Amanda said, I think it ge...I loved this one and as Amanda said, I think it gets better every time you read it.Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543330341390707771.post-11044448535493024902012-07-04T21:54:58.727-04:002012-07-04T21:54:58.727-04:00It is interesting that after letting the book sett...It is interesting that after letting the book settle in your mind, it makes more sense.
