I don't start reading books expecting I'll dislike them. But I do read classics and sometimes go into them expecting it could be a difficult read, and then be positively surprised. An example of that was To kill a mockingbird, which I found to be a total pageturner.

I have the same approach to classics! No one had warned me Madame Bovary was incredibly funny as well as a social satire. I went in expecting to have to work at it and loved every second.
