What author did you read a book by and didn’t like, but gave them another chance and loved it?

I’m so glad I gave Edith Wharton another chance. I read Ethan Frome and thought it was fine. On a whim I picked up The Age of Innocence and fell in love. Now I’m buying anything I can by her. I recently read The House of Mirth, and can confirm she is one of my favorite authors now. Anybody have a similar experience with an author?

    I’ve only read Mason & Dixon so I don’t know how it compares to his others, but I loved it! Highly recommend

      Oh yeah I’ve got that up next. Saving Gravity’s Rainbow for last in case it’s so weird that it turns me off of him lol.
