1. Katniss Everdeen from 'The Hunger Games'
While I did enjoy reading Suzanne Collins' famous book series 'The Hunger Games', I never really managed to click with protagonist Katniss Everdeen. I don't know why, but I just didn't really like her and that didn't change throughout the entire series.
One of the only YA novels I've picked up in the past couple of years and it reminded me why I'm not really a YA fan. I just can't click anymore with teenage characters and their worries since I'm not a teenager anymore. I really hope I will be able to pick up a YA novel that I end up loving, so if anyone has any recommendations, please let me know!

2. Tess from 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles'
I remember having to read 'Tess of the d'Urbervilles' as one of the first books on my classic English literature list when I was at university. Tess frustrated me from start to finish; I just wanted to jump into the story and slap her in the face.

3. Ana Steele from 'Fifty Shades of Grey'
I read the Fifty Shades trilogy, partly because I wanted to know why everyone was talking about it and partly because I did enjoy the story in a way. However, I didn't click with the main character Ana. I don't think the author really provided the reader with a lot of detail to get to know Ana, so I didn't feel anything, really, when it came to her as a character.

4. Faith Cotton from 'P.S. Olive You'
One of the most recent novels I've read in which I just didn't click with the main character.

5. Clara Hutt from 'Mutton'
I received this review book a few years ago and was really curious to read it. I don't know whether it was the age of the main character Clara or just her life in general, but I didn't feel any kind of link to her while I was reading the novel, which was too bad.

6. Main characters from 'Lone Wolf'
I don't know why exactly, but I somehow always have trouble connecting with characters from Jodi Picoult novels. I remember 'Lone Wolf' specifically, but it could have been any Jodi Picoult novel... Somehow her stories manage to grab me, but the characters just don't.

7. Hamlet from 'Hamlet'
I'm sure I'm not the only one who didn't manage to build up a connection with Hamlet... Right?

8. Evie Dexter from 'It Happened in Paris'
Another chick lit read which I couldn't wait to read, but in the end slightly disappointed me because of the main character, Evie, whom I just couldn't click with.
