I read Dune one really hot summer and the scorching hot weather really complimented the book .

Was it good? I've heard it's a bit lumbering and dry.

I cant tell if that is a joke or not , the book is set on a desert planet .

Nethinim 2y ago

Ha... Yeah I meant lumbering and dry in content.

Séimí Mac Síomón 2y ago

I certainly didn't think so, kept a decent pace I thought.

At any rate, I wouldn’t lean too heavily on another’s opinion of a book. Best to find out for yourself.

Yeah that's solid advice. I really surprised myself reading Memoirs of a Geisha . I was reading parts of it so that I could chat up a girl who liked it , and ended up reading the entire thing . I did the same thing with Wuthering Heights.

My experience with classics is about 50%... Some are amazing, but some are just painful. I won't quit a book 99% of the time, so I try to be selective and give myself a good chance by knowing ahead of time.

Never force a book. Too many others to choose from.
