Today my son said he wants to read Dante’s Inferno for his 7th grade independent reading book. I have only read excerpts of this book, but never the whole thing. It’s definitely a bucket list book, but one I don’t know if I’ll ever get to..I don’t know, it feels like I need to go to Italy or give myself some other epic vacation in order to read it.

For today’s prompt, write about a book that you’ve always wanted to read. What has stopped you from reading it? Or how do you imagine your time reading this book?
