Let me say it directly without any fanfare, IT IS NOT AN EASY READ. Hence, this may take awhile.

So far so good.. I am now truly having a blast reading G.K. :)

After hours of frustration, I realized that the problem is not the author but how the book was formatted and published.

So I did some digging in the internet and found out that the publisher of my copy was already being reviewed negatively for not doing its job to format the book correctly.

Due to such, I purchased a new copy from Angelico Press and so far my reading pace has dramatically improved! Thank you!

Reading Mr Chesterton is hard and difficult.

It is thick (not on the number of pages) but on the content and the depth of thought. Due to such, I end up rereading an entire page in order to get a clear grasp of what Mr Chesterton is saying.

As such, my reading pace have slowed down considerably and will be for sometime but it does not mean that it is not worth it.

On the contrary it is totally worth it. ;)

A bit of a struggle reading Mr. Chesterton because I am not used to his style of writing.

Nevertheless, the substance is outstanding and really good so far.
