I think I started reading "Catch 22" at least 4 times before the hook was set and I couldn't put it down. I've since re-read it a couple of times and am just amazed that it took me so long to really get into it. Maybe a person just has to be "ready" for a particular book for it to grab hold of you.
I was in the Army in 1969 when I finally settled in and finished "Catch 22" so maybe the atmosphere had something to do with it. Dunno, but I do know that I am grateful that I finally finished it.
