"If you don’t enjoy a book, stop reading and move on to something else–no matter how famous it is. Life is too short and there are too many books to spend time reading things you don’t like. I spent way to many hours trying to force myself to read The Sound and the Fury before I realized that I just wasn’t going to enjoy it. Give each book a fair chance, but keep in mind that there are more great books out there than you will ever have time to read, so don’t get stuck on one that you just don’t enjoy." from 11 Steps Toward Developing a Superior Mind

I did tough it through Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand - because a friend persevered through it. It was hard to "read" [50+ hours as an audio book] - but it was worth it.
