There are certain books I never could get into. The Hobbitt for example. I admire anyone who could read that, but I might suggest their brain is wired a little differently than mine. Or maybe it is when. Just like love, if you meet the love of your life at the wrong time, you may never connect. I couldn't stand the Hobbitt, but I love reading the Internal Revenue Code. Thinking back, the ability to retain previous characters is just what the Hobbitt, and the IRC, are about. Maybe I should retry it!
