Review: I just cannot get into it

Normally, I can finish a book in a day.  For some reason, it took me an entire week and I still cannot get past the middle of the book.  I had to force myself to keep on reading but the more I read, the more weary I became of the main character.  It may have to do with the first person telling of the story.  There wasn't much showing, mostly telling.  It's like being on a date and the other person keeps on talking.  He claims to be modest but went on to describe how great he is in school, how wonderful he is in bed and how easily he handled the task of hiring an army.  This is what this book feels like.  After a while, I found myself not wanting to pick up the book anymore.  Maybe when I have nothing else to read I will go back and find out how the story ends.
