“Effi Briest” all the way.
I know this is controversial, but I really hated ‘A Confederacy of Dunces’, the main character is just so annoying. I had a hard time finishing that one.
I tried listening to the audiobook, and the narrator is even more annoying than Wil Wheaton, which I didn’t think was possible
I had the same issue, but my wife loved it. We have agreed to disagree.
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. Only book I’ve ever thrown across the room and used as a craft cutting board.
The Bible. So so boring.
Catcher in the rye
Same. I thought it was so dumb
Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand.
Ulysses by James Joyce
Tap for spoiler
I had to make a separate exclusive category on goodreads just to keep this piece of trash out of my read pile.
It’s called power vs force, it’s some dumpster fire pseudo-science that’s really just vague ramblings of nothing. Don’t read it. Seriously.
Runes of the Earth by Stephen R. Donaldson. Couldn’t even finish it. Loved some of his earlier books, which I read when I was much younger. Not sure if he changed or if I did. But what I read of Runes was truly awful.
Not sure if he changed or if I did.
Typically it is you who has changed. Many things we remember fondly doesn’t hold up when we go back again.
