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?

Gödel, Escher, Bach. I was only able to read the whole thing because I was in a ship for a month without TV or internet.

I loved it, it taught me so much. But it was a tough bone to crack for sure!

Yeah, I want to read it again! Maybe when I'm retired! 🙂
