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?
The mc in gone with the wind is super unlikeable, she’s spoiled and rude. I had to watch it after reading in a few years ago and hated it. Also idk if this counts but “because of Winn Dixie” I had to read multiple times in elementary because I was in the gifted program, but maybe case of my synesthesia and how the plot was, I really hate it.
