Lackloss posted:The Scarlet Letter- this is one book that I don't think I would have ever read if it was not mandatory in one of my classes, I still didn't finish it. It spend several pages talking about a rose bush in front of a prison. Come on. I had to read Scarlet Letter for a class, and it was incredibly painful. So painful, in fact, that I managed to get within three chapters of the end, but by that point was so completely bored and tired of it that I pretty much refused to read a single page more and just gave up.

I was going to try to read Ulysses, but after about ten pages I decided that I simply didn't have the energy to attempt to get through the book right now. I enjoyed what I read, but I'm not up for a seven hundred page stream-of-consciousness epic at the moment. I'll give it a go some other time.

"TheSpiritFox posted:Also, my wife made me read Ender's Game and I'm stuck on page two of the sequel to that. The "parallel novel" Ender's Shadow is pretty much the real sequel to Ender's Game. If you enjoyed Ender's Game, then Shadow is probably the next book you want to read.
