The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - I know it's blasphemy to bring up any Twain but Huckleberry Finn is just worlds better than this book. I read it for 9th grade lit and I read it again six month ago and my opinion hasn't changed over the last 20 years. I just didn't find it particularly compelling or that interesting.
I remember being singularly bored by Camus' The Plague and only slightly interested in Flaubert's Madame Bovary as well.
I've read plenty of great books - just not these - although I'm willing to give these two the benefit of a bad translation, perhaps?
