No, you're the one who lacks reading comprehension. OP said that they haven't read the classics. You can't dislike something you haven't tried.

The so-called "classics" are so broad that it's asinine to say you don't like them after reading one or two. If you read a few sci-fi books and decide you don't like them, then, hey, that's fine because sci-fi novels tend to stick to certain themes/environments. If you read Kafka and Salinger and then write off all classics, then that's stupid because the classics contain a wide range of themes, writing styles, and plots.

You don't need to read an entire book to decide you don't like it. Sometimes a blurb is enough, sometimes a summary is enough and sometimes reading a single page at random is enough to decide you don't like it. I imagine even though OP clearly hasn't completed any of the books they've obviously encountered the contents at some point and disliked it.

OP shouldn't have to read through the entirety of several to validate their feelings on classics.
