The daily prompt asks – What’s a classic book that you think is overrated?

I would be the worst judge in history to answer this question because my classic book experience is limited. And instead of slandering someone without basis I’ll share this opinion. It’s not that I don’t read, just not many classic books.

I think the world is losing the tactical feel of reading. Maybe it’s just my old generation but seeing a train full of people reading a newspaper or magazine or book was a picture that only lives in my mind now. Holding something in your hands that doesn’t have a battery in it.

In the past you could pick up the local paper and get the feel of a place. Those no longer exist and if they do, they are struggling to stay in business.

Books seem to be the last baston of printed reading holding their own.

Anyway, just my opinion. A smartphone isn’t a reading tool unless you want eyestrain issues.
