What’s something that you feel like you should like,, but for some reason can’t get into, no matter how many chances you give it?

For me, it’s The Three Body Problem. It should be right up my alley from everything I’ve heard about it (especially the second book, which looks at the Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter!), but for the life of me, I can’t get past the first chapter at all. I even tried reading it in another language to see if it was the translation that kept me from getting into it, and nope.

For The Expanse, the first few episodes are definitely not the most inviting (although they get better once you've seen the whole show once already). Very much worth pushing through with it though
