Booking Through Thursday

Booking Through Thursday is a weekly meme hosted by Booking Through Thursday and a different question is posted every week. 

We all had to read things in school that we didn’t like … but what
about something you read for a class that you ended up liking (or
loving)? An author you discovered that you might not have found? A
genre you hadn’t thought about?


I can honestly say I have never really ended up loving a book that I had to read for school.  I just finished my A-Levels, and I took English Language and Literature.  I had to read Hamlet for coursework and Hard Times for my exam, partnered with a text of my choosing.  Hamlet was ok but I didn't love it, Hard Times was a chore, while I liked Dicken's purpose for writing it, I still didn't enjoy reading it.

  2. At the time you don't enjoy it or maybe not as much.

  3. I read so many books growing up it's hard to distinguish the books I read for pleasure and the books assigned in school.

  4. I always read a lot from a young age, so the assigned reading didn't bother me as much.
