What author did you read a book by and didn’t like, but gave them another chance and loved it?
I’m so glad I gave Edith Wharton another chance. I read Ethan Frome and thought it was fine. On a whim I picked up The Age of Innocence and fell in love. Now I’m buying anything I can by her. I recently read The House of Mirth, and can confirm she is one of my favorite authors now. Anybody have a similar experience with an author?
It’s really funny that people seem to be polarized into either the Piranesi camp or the Strange & Norrell camp. I seldom see people love both or hate both.
It kinda makes sense, the books were written decades apart and bear very little resemblance to one another, so you can’t make a judgment on one based on the other.
