![]() ![]() Still, I like trying to expand my horizons, and if one of my favorite authors takes me somewhere-even somewhere I’m not used to-I’ll follow. As you can imagine, this made reading Watchmen a nightmare. I like looking at pictures, especially in a certain kind of style-I love the recent trend of cute YA covers!-but graphic novels and I don’t really get along because half their story is told in the images, and unless I actively tell myself look at the pictures, don’t just read the words I tend to miss things. The most challenging? The one where we watched movies instead of reading books. I majored in English literature and took classes that studied everything from The Hunger Games to Jane Austen to Kafka to Oscar Wilde. ![]() There’s something about images that my brain just doesn’t handle as well. They just don’t suit my reading particularly, because I like to be deeply immersed for a long time and I’m not great with visuals. I’m not one of those judgy people who is all they’re not real books. ![]()
