There is something I haven’t figured out yet. I was wondering are there books to give a 2nd chance. Those would belong mostly to tragedies part of high school. I was close-minded to the genre. All because of Les Misérables, I learned to love the genre. Here were some of the stories I was stuck reading.
- Romeo and Juliet
- Julius Caesar
- Macbeth
- Of Mice and Men
- The Giver
- Lord of the Flies
- The Great Gatsby
- Frankenstein
I really don’t know if I should give any of those a 2nd chance. I thought tragedies were pure sad, but clearly I didn’t fully understand it.
You should give Romeo and Juliet another try. I haven’t read it yet but I am going to be this year and I hear that it’s great.

That is what my dad keeps telling me. To give that another chance.

I’m all for giving some books a second chance! There are sometimes books that I feel like I read at the wrong time in my life, or that I didn’t give a proper chance to in the first place and those are the ones I typically give a second chance. But then, there are some books that I just didn’t like and probably will never give another chance to!

I’m a coward, literally everything scares me. But I wouldn’t say Frankenstein is scary, just a little creepy at times

What can be hard about giving any of them a chance is what I remember about them- as in their plots.
Well, I do love HP and Lord of the Rings- scary at times, but still love them

Oh yeah, after you know the plot it can be a bit hard to reread them

The Great Gatsby is definitely worth a second chance, it is a great novel. I love Steinbeck but I much prefer East of Eden to Of Mice and Men.

I am a little more open-minded to books now- Les Misérables helped with that.
I literally told myself I will NEVER love a tragedy. So my parents took me to the film without telling me. Had to be given a 2nd chance- I gave Les Mis a 2nd chance. Just don’t know which other ones should
