23. The book you expected to hate, didn’t, and then got angry about not hating
Hate is such a strong word. I don't think I ever expected to hate any book. Like why read one? And I liked reading for school, for the most part. And why would I get angry over not hating something? This question seems a little silly.
There were books I didn't expect to like and then did - a lot of book my Dad was trying to get me to read. I loved the Tomek book series as a child but he spent a while convincing me to give it a try. I didn't expect to like Shakespeare. But then I had a wonderful teacher in the 10th grade who introduced us to "Macbeth" - we read it over the whole quarter - nine weeks - and read it carefully, and he just made me love it and not afraid to tackle other Shakespeare plays. But I was never angry afterward, just grateful.
