I'll never be able to understand Finnegan's Wake, and Ulysses I'm starting to grasp, but slowly.

I was suprised at how normal most of Ulysses was. There's some chapters that are highly experimental but for the most part it seems a normal book.

Twilight

Brave New World is not the worst book I have ever read, but the last half of it was absolutely terrible. I thought it was going to build up to something extraordinary like other dystopian novels I've read, but it just snowballed.

Twilight by Stephanie Meyers. biggest waste of three days worth of reading i ever spent.

I wasnt a fan of Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift either, but thats probly because the only classic literature i like is Shakespeare.
