David Copperfield. I read it in one day when I was a kid and had nothing else to do. Bleak House was a slog too, but it had some nice turns of phrase that stuck with me.
And at the risk of insulting a classic, One Hundred Years of Solitude. I get that it’s supposed to be a critique on society and inspired by the author’s life. I just found it bleak.
