Not because it was to complicated, I didn't get far enough fo rthat to ba an issue, but because of my eyes. I had almosted stop readin all together and found I couldn't get into any novel with getting tired of readin it after about twenty minuetes. To make a long story short I hate glasses but love my nook. I am thinking of giving him another try. I was going to jump back into The Sound and the Fury but maybe I will give this a try instead.
