I believe in second chances. Rejection and past mistakes have taught me the beauty of second chances, and not only do I believe I should be given one but so should the current author whose work I am currently reading: John Irving!!!
After ditching 'A Widow for A Year' close to four years ago, I swore never to touch another Irving book. But upon someone's insistence that he is possibly one of the greatest authors of all times, and because I hold this person's taste for books to the highest regard... I marched into Borders today, and picked up a copy of The Cider House Rules.
I'm 40 pages into it and so far, it contains more entertainment than 300 pages of Anna Karenina.
