Following on from the overrated books thread, I realised there are some books that I really want to like, but can't help thinking they are a bit shite really. Am I being fick? If you like them please help me see the light.
Explanations of why I am spectacularly missing the point, or contributions of other seemingly shite books welcome.
So...
Villette - seems to be about a woman dripping around in France, pointlessly.
Metamorphosis - man turns into a beetle and gets pissed off then dies.
What am I missing?
