As an English major who's read almost all these books and reads similar shit in my free time for "fun," I can attest most of it is boring; or if it IS interesting, it's on a level that is not the same "interesting" as the other books I read for pleasure. It takes a lot more investment and work, and not everyone wants to work so hard for not-so-great payoff and an enjoyment that's less visceral.

For the record, most literary fiction written nowadays is ALSO boring.

Although if you ever get the opportunity, I do recommend reading some of the uber-uber-UBER classics with a really good professor. Not Shakespeare; he should be watched, not read. But The Divine Comedy, for instance. Or Paradise Lost. They're referenced so often and such rich, fascinating works that it really is interesting to read them with someone who knows what they're talking about (and not interesting on an academic level, interesting on a regular level).

And obviously everyone should read and study the Bible because I feel like it's impossible to study any Western literature or history without knowing it, but that's just me
