Isn't it weird how your frame of mind impacts your enjoyment of a book?

Example: I have tried and failed many times to get into George Eliot's "Middlemarch". I always found it dry and incredibly slow paced. Where is the plot? It's so many words about nothing.

This time around, I finally get it. Listening to the audiobook (Narrator: Nadia May) helped. Middlemarch is a *comedy* and the humor is in absurdity of these human characters in responding to their situations.
