The English is extremely hard, and is generally considered a book which should be read if you are a 'veteran' reader.
Since I rarely read English book (only English WN/LN/VN that generally had easier English writing) so I can't share similar experience about English books. But, probably the most annoying book for me is still
The Broken Wings by Kahlil Gibran (I read the Indonesia translation version:
Sayap-Sayap Patah). The way he wrote the story down as poetry is really tiring for teenager me.
For example, just imagine something like this. He want to write that the ML (male lead) really love the FL but they can't be together since the FL was forced to marrying someone else. Then, Gibran write something like,
Oh, my beloved… though this love is as sweet as honey; as fiery as a flame; as intoxicating as wine; seeping into the deepest recesses of my heart; yet we cannot be together. You will be belong to someone else. It is not right for us to keep meeting like this. That love has now turned into poison; it is as painful as the thorns in Jesus’ crown; it binds you and me in chains of suffering; creating endless, unrelenting sorrow.
*Translated with DeepL since I'm to lazy to think the wording in English
Yes. Probably it's really romantic and heart touching for some people, but since I'm not really into poetry, so this book still becomes one of the books that I'll not read again for a while.
