Interesting.

The first time I tried reading Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, I couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried. I was sixteen at the time.

Now, at twenty-two, I'm reading it again for a class, and I find myself really liking it. I wonder what it was that changed.

I love that book. :) (Can't read it without skipping over the descriptions of Levin farming, though.)

Poke me if you ever want to geek about it -- I haven't read it in its entirety since I was about sixteen, but it's still on my bookshelf!

Haven't gotten to the farming yet, but squee!
