By this I mean, a book you had to brace yourself to read, and you feel proud for having read. Did you enjoy the process of reading it?

    Don Quixote is the main reason I’d like to know Spanish. Maybe one day I will learn it. What did you particularly enjoy about it?

      I just liked the story of this old man who just can’t let go, running amok and becoming increasingly insane, while most characters in the book are either indifferent to him or think he’s nuts. He’s just trying to live out his own reality one last time I think, one last adventure in a world that doesn’t exist anymore.
