I've been made a bit apprehensive by comments saying how awful E. M. Forster's works are. I'm very much not a reader of the romance genre, but I wanted to try something new and A Room With A View sounded interesting -- romance with a good dash of social satire -- thus it got my vote. Plus, even though the genre is different, I really enjoyed Forster's short story
The Machine Stops. I'm fairly optimistic that I'll enjoy A Room With a View, now that I'm getting around to starting it. Reasonable thinking, yes?
