Chicago Tribune: The challenge of hard-to-finish books.

Why do we feel like we fail, when we give up on a book?  Silly.  I know from experience that certain books resonate at different ages.  A book I read in high school and *hated*, could be a new favorite at 30 ... to be reviled again at 50.  One needs the wisdom of patience with books.
