Finished Gulliver's Travels

FINALLY! Okay. I had really, really high hopes for this book and then it turned out to be an extremely slow read. I couldn't concentrate on the story at all. It had some very deep subject matter and was written in what I would call "Old English". We looked up the movie on Netflix and found a 2 part mini series called "Gulliver's Travels". We are watching it right now. As I was reading the book I thought I wasn't understanding any of it, but as we watch the movie I seemed to remember most of the parts. It was a really good story and I'm glad I didn't give up on it. Just wasn't in the mood for a book that makes me really pay attention I guess. I don't think we will be reading the book to the boys, but will let them see the Jack Black movie. :)
