I wonder if this is true of Enders Game, I read it in the last two years and didn't rate it very highly. The stuff with the brother and sister is interesting especially looking back at when it is was written, the Ender storyline was just OK.
I also put down Anansie Boys after about 20 pages.

I read The Satanic Verses to see what all the fuss was about, good book.
