Thinking I could speed read through the first 100 pages of Gravity's Rainbow in an afternoon

Took me four days and I still had to google half the references, not sure I actually absorbed any of it. Has anyone else spent way too long on a book everyone claims is a masterpiece?

Bought Ulysses because everyone said it was genius and gave up on page 30.

Page 30 of Ulysses is where I finally admitted I have the attention span of a gnat.

Honestly @linda_mason82, that's the point where most people realize the emperor has no clothes...
