Like others, I struggle with Margaret Atwood’s books. Also C.P. Snow. I couldn’t get my head round Tolkien, much to the puzzlement of my friend who devoured all the Hobbit and LOTR books. I enjoyed Hilary Mantell’s two books and am looking forward to the next one. The absolute rock bottom for me is Stephen Fry. Tried two of his. Pretentious, self centred garbage.
