Book lovers and avid readers may find reading books very enjoyable but it depends on which books you're reading. I find that there are certain books that, no matter how much you love reading, you just can't bear to finish.

Some of these may be on this list which includes Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace, James Joyce's Ulysses, Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time, Herman Melville's Moby Dick, and John Milton's Paradise Lost.

These five books may well be some of the most difficult books to read, partly because they're very thick, and partly because they have very difficult themes and subjects to understand without a proper background on them.

However, there is a way for you to talk about these books even if you haven't actually read them.
