Posted about this last week. Newish bf has like 15+ copies of this book. All different covers. He seemed kind of embarrassed when he admitted it was his favorite book.

What does this mean? I've honestly never even heard of it before? Why would he be embarrassed? I ended up buying him another copy and he seemed really embarrassed again about it when I gave it to him.
Then the next time I went to his place he put his whole collection away somewhere. When I asked him if I should read it, he then said that I probably wouldn't like it. Why doesn't he want me to read it?

Why wouldn't he think I would like it? Should I somehow force him to let me borrow a copy? Or just find an ebook version somewhere. It's really bothering me that he doesn't want to share this book he supposedly loves so much with me or he is being secretive about it.

Could it be that it was a special "thing" he shared with an ex and doesn't want to share it with me now?

I thing it's not the book, but rather the pure cringe that your posting, speech and behavior radiates all around you. He doesn't want a book he enjoys to be tainted by association with you and your cringe-ass ways.

It's one of the best novels, all time. There are two major plot lines that briefly converge near the novel's close: an adulterous affair and its aftermath, and a long courtship predominantly from the point of view of a character earnestly endeavoring to change his life for what he feels is the better. If he has a favorite character (if you're gay it's going to be Levin, Vronsky, or Anna) worry; if he just loves the novel, (you) should be fine.

Well? The stuff of high drama: if not sex, then vengeance: making it, losing it.

Its a very good and well-renowned book. And given that it was written in russian, he probably likes to collect different translations of it to see how they differ. Why are you reading into this so much?
