Are there any books out there that are generally regarded as "good" that you just can't get into?
I've read Jane Eyre two or three times. I've even watched the movie with the very physically attractive Mr. Fassbender, but I just don't like it. The first time I read it, I was like, wow that was stupid. A few years later, I gave it another chance, but still could not force myself to appreciate it. Many people, especially women, cite it as one of their favorite books, and it is widely regarded as a classic, but to me, it's just so artificially emotional.
So are there any books out there where you go against the norm?
And I don't mean those twilight/50 shades teeny bopper fictions. Because you sure are kidding yourself if you think those are respectable.
wow, i sound so elitist, hahahha.
