Travis’s comments from the Reading the Classics group.

This has been on my "to read" list forever. l'll start it this weekend. Thanks for the thread.

Coincidentally started reading A Tree Grows in Brooklyn last month as a bedtime read with my daughter. I read this book years ago and remember almost nothing about it. Only remember thinking it was a slow read, and then feeling awed by the time I'd finished the book. That's it... today could not name a single character or say anything at all about it so it didn't leave much impression. Hoping the bedtime read and the discussion here will remind me why I thought this was a good book. We are still in the early chapters and not always excited to pick it up at night. It is as a well drawn view of a time and place, but not a riveting story yet. We will keep reading.
