Q. Have you ever read a book that you thought you would hate? Did you end up hating it?  Did you end up loving it?  Or would you never do that?

I participated in a book club a couple of years ago and the downside (to me) about a book club is having to give up time you would normally choose a book that is in your preferred genre to read something that somebody else picks out which may not be anything you would normally choose.  That could be disastrous to the desire to read and there were a couple I DNF.  There were ones I felt strongly I wouldn't enjoy and didn't.  But the one that sticks out the most to me during that time was The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson.  I was not in any way stoked to read it and the first 150 pages made me more clear on why I knew I wouldn't like it.  Surprisingly it did get better and was pretty interesting.  However, after we met to discuss the book and I heard the ending (cause I wasn't finished with it yet myself) I then had zero desire to read the last 50 pages.  So I didn't.  And I gave the book to a local library.  And I don't miss it.  And I'll never read the others.

What about you?  How would you answer this question?
