brin_bellway 's thing about childhood books has reminded me of Childhood WTF #35:"I'm 8 and I've heard this Tolkien guy is good so I go to my primary-school library and pick the first book I find with his name on it and totally fail to read more than ten pages of the Silmarillion, and basically never touch a Tolkien book again"

(I did read The Hobbit in my mid-teens. It was pretty good. Still not touching anything else.)
