It’s a question inspired by this post https://www.reddit.com/r/books/s/s2jK2DzFrA by u/oh_sneezeus
Is there any book that is considered a classic or regularly shows up on the “100 books to read before you die” lists and such, you had high expectations before reading and then you ended up absolutey detesting?
For me it’s Blindness by José Saramago, it started off good and then page after page it was becoming more unbearable for me to read, I hated the characters, the things they were doing and the conclusions of the book. I was really disappointed because the plot seemed really good and all I ended up with was frustration.
Is there a book that did the same to you?
That’s an oversimplification. She didn’t claim that everyone who’s rich and successful is virtuous, and in fact the villains include several people who are rich by inheritance or by political maneuvering.
My point exactly. The only people capable of being rich and villainous are the ones who got wealthy without hard work.
The entire book is an oversimplification.
