Have you ever taken against a book, given up on it, but then, at another time in your life, given it another shot and loved it?

I read "Disgrace" by JM Coetzee when it came out, because of all the fuss around it, and I felt bored and underwhelmed. Re-read it again nearly a decade later and it left me lying on the floor in tears. Haven't dared re-read it since.

Book 1999
