Allegiant by Veronica Roth
All are very popular books, but I just wasn't pulled in. THe plots were either too boring, I didn't like the main character, or I had higher expectations for the book and was let down.

I totally get why you couldn't finish, but if you ever find the time, I encourage you to try again. The ending is the best part.

I think it would be worth reading, but at the time I happened to run across a copy of it, I didn't have the time to make the commitment to it. And the plot is complex enough that you can't read a little bit and then come back a month later and remember what's going on.

I didn't love Catcher In The Rye but it led me to Franny and Zoey and I loved that and then had a better understanding of Catcher In The Rye.Fran wrote:Despite repeated efforts I cannot figure A Clockwork Orange ... I finished it but I still have no idea what it was about - guess I'm just not the 'target audience'. Another book that failed to impact me was The Catcher in the Rye ... I just found him to be a most annoying pain in the ass.laci_baby wrote:I agree with Bridges of Madison County... i couldnt get through that if my life depended on it.
It took me forever to finish A Clockwork Orange mostly because of the slang he created... but i did eventually finish it and adore it.
I cannot for the life of me finish Lily of the Valley. I've tried three times, and will continue to try but i dont see an end in sight.
Shocking I know ... two 'cult' books that just left me cold.
