Not quite the same thing, but as a child I read and reread the beginnings of Jane Eyre and David Copperfield over and over, abandoning them shortly after the titular characters entered early adulthood. (I still find David Copperfield getting drunk and what not very unfunny.) Eventually I got further and further in and started enjoying the rest.
