I have always enjoyed reading but some books are more difficult to read than others. Books in literature are the most challenging. Yet, this book written by Susan Wise Bauer, a professor at the College of Williams and Mary in Virginia, presents some strategies to get through any genre. She shares the art of reading.
Susan boldy expresses the view that the inability to read through literature is not about mental indequacy but perhaps a lack of knowing how to prepare for the book.
What I am enjoying the most about this book is the annotated list. This is giving me an opportunity to read some books that I otherwise would not.
