The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn- I actually threw the book in the garbage after reading it (which is equivalent to blasphemy in my eyes).

I agree, there are some British authors I just cannot read. I’ll read through 3 full pages of flowery, pretentious language and realize they have said absolutely nothing story-wise. I half jokingly call Bram Stoker’s Dracula “The Endless Ramblings of Professor Van Hellsing.” I’m glad I pushed through that one, but I have given up on several British classics after only a few pages because I just can’t get into that writing style. It almost feels like reading nonsense/gibberish.
