Book challenge day 9: a book you thought you wouldn’t like

A Room With A View by E M Forster

I had previously read Passage to India and Howard’s End by same author and I didn’t like either of them, so I had no hopes for this. Then I read it. It’s great. It’s very funny and romantic but also has a lot to say about how we let what other people think influence our behaviour. I re-read it often.

(The movie is also great but did have more full frontal male nudity than I expect in a period drama😱😂)

    Oh wow yea, I’ve only seen the movie but haven’t read the book. I remembered liking Passage to India when I had to read it in high school. I liked his writing style but barely remembered what the book is about. Lols.

      I might have to reread Passage to India now I’m older, I might like it better. Howard’s End I still can’t make it all the way through.

    I’m reading this right now and find it highly entertaining and thoughtful. Can’t wait to find out what Lucy will decide to do (I’m at the part when she’s back in England and new (but old) faces showed up in her neighborhood).
