I cannot finish one of the free eBook Classics I got from Sony called "The Schoolmistress and Other Stories" by Anton Checkov. It has several stories but got so boring I had to set it aside. I have half a dozen bookmarks on my reader still. There are so many interesting stories I'll probably never get back to it... I really liked Stephen King's "Nightmares & Dreamscapes" I had on pbook. But I got to the middle of the book and had to set it aside-it was just too scary to read at night

, I believe "The Night Flyer" was the story. I did eventually finish it.
