Not necessarily. Peoples' tastes can change as they age, and sometimes it's interesting to go back and see if your feelings about a piece of media has changed.

ayrt

Yeah, it took until the anon above your response for me to wrap my head around that idea!
I tend to say fairly stubborn with certain character arcs/storylines since I have a good enough memory that I can recall exactly why and how I felt about something at a time, but there have been times when I went back to old fics and loved them just the same, but with a completely different view on all they characters. I absolutely agree that this is a fascinating thing to experiment with, and honestly OP has a great idea with re-experiencing a novel that they hated as a benchmark like that. I'd be devastated if I read a childhood favourite only to have it not hit me the same way it did when I was young. Honestly, reading a book you hate might even give you a boost to know your child brain knew what they were talking about when they disliked a certain scene/arc, or the whole book altogether!
