Shell, it's books that go backwards and forwards in time that tend to
confuse me as much as the character list. I really enjoy Kate Atkinson's
books, but she does this a lot, and so I find it can take a while to get
into them.

I'm exactly the same June.  I hate starting a new book and sometimes have to
push myself to get started.  I hate that very beginning part when I don't
know any of the characters or places and can't wait till I get to the point
when I pick it up knowing who's who.  I think that's why I can't get along
with short stories, because I just reach that point when it's all over and I
have to start again.  I think that's why I like to read series of books,
because it's not as daunting at the beginning.  I'm particularly nervous
when it's a new author.
