Re. Bujold, I liked Cordelia's Honor/Barrayar but was put off for years by The Warrior's Apprentice because I couldn't stand bouncy Miles. Then I found Komarr in a charity shop and got hooked again, read A Civil Campaign and then read all the rest backwards. I'd definitely advise people to try a different one or two before writing off the whole series.
