Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Did not finish book. Stopped at 29%.

physically painful to read.

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie
Did not finish book. Stopped at 34%.

so boring.

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
Did not finish book. Stopped at 7%.

I bet the author just wrote a normal text and then replaced every second word with the least common synonym nobody ever heard of  from his dictionary. Unreadable unless you want to pause each sentence and google 5 words. Also all the sentences are just so pretentious and unnecessarily complicated.

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes
Did not finish book. Stopped at 28%.

Its a short story that got turned into a novel and it really shows. You get the concept in the first few minutes and after that its just stretching it out and out and out and it gets boring.

1984 by George Orwell
Did not finish book. Stopped at 10%.

just as unfun to read as brave new world minus the subtlety.

Boring repetitive story and the so called 'twist' at the end is just an insult. Also a lot of weird old-fashioned racism.
