Finally started and finished reading the The Scarlet Letter. I do not know how many attempts to start this book in my life, but it was close to 10. On Goodreads I gave it 2 out of 5 stars, which according to their tier is "it was ok." It was okay, and I am grateful for never having to read it in HS (thank you, Honors). The story line was fine, it was the prose that drove me crazy and I was not able to focus. I skipped the Introductory chapter by Hawthorne.
