Booking Through Thursday

Oh, you guys, I'm trying very hard to get back into the swing of things, but alas, guess who just got sick? >.< style="font-weight: bold;">“What’s the worst ‘best’ book you’ve ever read — the one everyone says is so great, but you can’t figure out why?”

This...is pretty much everything. Name a classic--If I have read it, I hated it (exception for Catcher in the Rye.) Shakespeare in particular, oh Lord. The Shakespeare snobs hate me for it, but I just despise the man's work. But topping the list by far is Jack London's The Call of the Wild. I...cannot even begin to describe how pointless and horrible I think it is.

ETA: OH MY GOD. I cannot believe I forgot! Thanks muchly to Lynda for reminding me of the horrible, horrible, ...THING that is The Lord of the Rings series. X_X
