Have you ever taken against a book, given up on it, but then, at another time in your life, given it another shot and loved it?

Mansfield Park. Read it as a teen and loathed every character. Re-reading it in my 40s I realised it is about the niaivety of youth; the characters are only sympathetic once you realise how young they are. Not something I could see as a teen… or would have wanted to be told
