long time, no book meme

Book meme:

A book

1. you didn't enjoy reading, but you'll give it another chance eventually;

2. you didn't like at all, but you'll read again because it can't be as bad as you remember it to be; and

3. a book you were put off reading by the first few pages but that turned out to be great after you gave it another go.

1. Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel

2. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

3. Anathem

also: football. *wibbles*

Wibbles not required!

Well done, Germany - but that goal was so definitely in that I thought they'd have to announce at half-time that they had awarded it!

I hope you go on and win it now!

I am finding it difficult to think of a book I finished while not liking it, and then decided to re-read ... But I did start and abandon Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell - then went back to it and pressed on and enjoyed it tremendously, on holiday.
