Books started but never finished

viksorion

All of us have been in situations when we start certain book depending on Author or reviews or someone recommnded it and then never finish it for whatever reason.....
In fact if I remember correctly there was a survey on it some time back and the books most people started and never finished are all "classics".

I am also guilty of some....

Catch 22, Gone with the wind, Atlas Shrugged, The Fountainhed, Shantaram, WWII memoirs of Churchill, James Clavell Shogun series......

What are yours ?

Bhendi Bazar by Vish Djamija

Unfortunately there is a quite a list. The latest one is Norwegian Wood by Murakami. To say it was sad and boring is an understatement.

Panipat by Vishwas Patil (Marathi book) whenever I started reading it, I fell asleep

Yes there is a long list. Don't even remember the names! The last one, though not a classic by any standard, I tried to read was "The Bestseller She Wrote" by Ravi Subramaniam. Read a couple of chapters but it simply failed to create any kind of interest in me. So went to the trash!
