Drake answers “This book is soooooo boring. I'm like...”

Jeremy X asked this question about Robinson Crusoe:

This book is soooooo boring. I'm like one-third through the book and it's just boring me to death but I have to read it for English. Does anyone agree?

Drake Collins Yes, It's incredibly boring. I started reading it because I love the Robinsonian Genre, and thought I really should read the book that started it all.…moreYes, It's incredibly boring. I started reading it because I love the Robinsonian Genre, and thought I really should read the book that started it all. I've been plodding along for a third of the book, and I'm debating giving up. I'm too old to waste time reading something I don't like simply because other people think it's an important work of literature.(less)
