I don't regret reading any book. I'll try most anything. I may not finish some, but "regret" never enters the equation.
I see every book as a learning opportunity. Will I or will I not revisit this author and his / her works.?

Untamed by Glennon Doyle. I tried to like it, to glean the “female empowerment” messages she was trying to get across, but I found her grating and annoying. I couldn’t finish it, so I don’t recall many details, but I do remember thinking that she is someone I would not like in person.
American psycho the movie is G rated in comparison
Ready Player One.
I still actively resent the editor who asked me to read it for a feature that would coincide with the film's release.
1Q84 - Murakami
Could have told the same mediocre story in 400 pps
This is probably my favorite book.
The Shipping News - Annie Proulx
Now, I'm only around 2/3 of the way through, but daaaaamn is it boring. My god. Don't give a shit about any of the characters and I'm having to force my way through it. The grammar style I respect for doing something different, but it's also a chore.
It's a Pulitzer Prize winner. I read this immediately after Lonesome Dove, another PP winner. One I couldn't put down and the other I want to throw away.
Did anyone else like this book and why?
Loved it. Beautiful prose. Proulx is an absolute treasure.
