> mfw The English Patient was bad and I regret reading it

Half of it is just pure, headache-inducing prose and the other half is just guff. It's almost as bad as modern first person shooters - if you removed everything that had nothing to do with the story, you'd be left with about 5 minutes of 'entertainment'. And the end had zero. Fucking. Closure. It only explained what happened to the character that I cared the least about.

Anyone else want to share their thoughts? Other books that you just didn't enjoy?

I didn't enjoy it that much when I read it either, not that it's bad, it's just really boring

Can someone verify this?

It can work, but it's totally uncomfortable. Every time I initiated sex in a tub, it ended up finishing elsewhere.

To Kill A Mockingbird is still the worst book I've ever read.
