"Carter counted a dozen aircraft, big fat ones with huge doors dropped open at the back like a kid's pajamas, and forklifts moving to and fro along the tarmac, loading pallets draped with camo. He wondered if maybe they were going to make some kind of soldier out of him, if that's what he'd traded his life for." (The Passage by Justin Cronin, pg. 124)

I keep seeing The Fandom pop up on lists today/yesterday and I had never heard of it up until this point but I'm glad that is the case 'cos it just seems like something that wouldn't click with me. I like a couple of books on here but can totally get why you DNF'ed them for various reasons--there's just some books that we can't get into, you know? Taste is so very subjective. I also couldn't finish Catch-22. Great list.
