I *still* cannot get through Treasure Island. I received a copy of the book as a kid, and have tried to read it at least 5 or 6 times (last time was within the last 3-4 years) I am always amazed that when I am about halfway through the book, how uninterested I am in the characters or the plot, and put it down.
