SmithSJ01's "What I've read in 2007"
The books I’ve read as I’ve read them this year. They are in order of reading, not order of preference.

For some reason I just couldn’t get into this. I kept going until I reached about page 90 but just wasn’t getting with her writing style. This was a disappointment for me particuarly because of the circumstances in which she wrote this book.
I reached the 200 page mark but still had 500 to go (1922 edition). It was difficult and I was struggling with the plot. Very disappointed in myself for not being able to finish it.
I didn’t like the style or setting of this novel. Others I know have read it and enjoyed it but it wasn’t for me.
This was for a book group so I did try to read it. However I found it antiquated and difficult – too ‘university’ for my liking and I’ve been there done it so don’t want it in my reading. Dabbled in a few chapters but found writing style old.
I’m sure this is a great text. I bought this for studying but I didn’t need it in the end. Read the introduction and I’m afraid I knew this wouldn’t be for me. A great book I’m sure.
Sorry! After 5 chapters I quite frankly didn’t care what happened to the characters. Gave up!
This was more like studying than reading. Abandoned after first part.
I tried so hard to read this but have now failed several times over the last 5 or 6 years. Time to put it down I think!
