I hate to admit it - but I started to read it once, didn't like it, and never finished it.

Sorry, I just didn't like it. Now that I'm 10 years older, it's no better, in fact I can't read any fiction at all. I used to love to read. Now it's all I can do to read what I have to - eg the newspaper, instructions, stuff at work, etc. I'm just not a reader.
