"One man's treasure is another man's junk."

I read both The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged in high school and loved both, but I might think differently now.

I thought the book, Dances with Wolves, was deadly boring. I tried like hell to get through it and finally gave up the ghost. I couldn't even use it to put me to sleep!

Couldn't make it through The French Lieutenant's Woman because it was just "flat."

I stay away from any book written by a romance writer cum mystery writer.

annap ... I like Agatha Christie for the same reason you like Dickens ... her books reflect the signs of the times.

Science fiction bores me to death!

And, please, deliver me from people who say to me "Oh, but you just gotta read this one, it's so much better than his/her other books." NOT!
