I just can't get into Terry Prachett's books, even when the theme is one that should interest me.
I tend to avoid any authors whose paperback covers have either a dragon, a unicorn, or a bipedal creature with a cat's head on it.
I really want to read George R. R. Martin, but everytime I pick up one of his books, I put it down after reading about five pages.
I can't bring myself to read Terry Goodkind or Robert Jordan or Jean M. Aurel. I've looked at the covers and read the blurbs many times in the bookstores, but I just can't make myself buy those books.
I've started "Outlander" by Gabaldon several times, but I always get to a certain point and then I realize that I couldn't care less about Claire and stop reading.

You're getting karma for that because you've caught me in a mood that had me crying with laughter over some of those - 'a bipedal creature with a cat's head on it'
