Do you remember reading some books when you were younger and for whatever reason you just can't read them today?
I used to LOVE Brian Jaques' Redwall series- I still own every book, and they're all worn from being read over and over again when I was just in 5th grade- maybe 10 years old.
I re-read the first book in the series two nights ago because I was bored- it took me no time at all to finish what would have taken days back then...Brought back a ton of memories, but it just wasn't the same. I enjoyed it, but wasn't at all captivated like I used to be since the series was written for kids. I guess I just grew up without realizing. It's funny because some books are timeless for me- I read LOTR when I was in 4th grade, and I can still pick it up today and it has the same effect. Other books, not so much. It kind of makes me sad to think that a series I loved so much just isn't as interesting as it used to be!
Does anyone else have that kind of book? The kind you loved so much but just isn't quite the same? List them, talk about them- remember them! I bet they'll bring back good memories for you like Redwall did for me
