    If you mean “which book did you like the least” I’m going with Wuthering Heights. It’s a miserable story about awful characters that is for some reason a curriculum requirement.

    Honorable mentions:

    I was told A Confederacy Of Dunces was a tremendously funny book, “one big clockwork of a joke” couldn’t bring myself to finish it, I just didn’t want to spend any more time with these characters.

    I’ve also managed to slide off of the Aubrey-Maturin series (Remember that Russel Crowe movie where he’s a British sailing ship captain? The books that movie was based on)…I might have been able to slog through ye olde timey languagee if the author didn’t have a habit of changing scenes and not telling us. At the end of one chapter we’re sailing around having nautical adventures and then the next chapter begins 5 paragraphs into visiting with some old guy and his step-nurse. The tag line of these books is “Wait, what’s going on?”
