A classic hardback book from a distant aunt.
Titles such as Kidnapped, Moby Dick and Treasure Island.
She started when I was three or four but I grew into them

I've tried to read Kidnapped, twice. Once when I was 12 and again as an adult.Originally posted by ctdctd View PostA classic hardback book from a distant aunt.

The first time was a huge shock as I had devoured every single book I had read up until then and I knew that it was a classic. I just couldn't get past the first few chapters.
The second time I tried I thought that I had been too young to appreciate it.
My 12 year old self was right. RL Stephenson is my least favourite author."I can put any old tat in my sig, put quotes around it and attribute to someone of whom I've heard, to make it sound true."
