For the past 40 years or so, I've read through 1 and 2 Corinthians once or twice a year in my NT quiet times. I cannot specifically say why, but the early chapters of the two books seem different in the phrasing of the text than with the other Pauline epistles.

Is their a reason why, or am I just 'out to lunch' on this? Are their any epistles that you find somethat different than the others?

Just curious why the question? Is Pauline authorship being questioned...?

No, not at all. It's just that with the other Paul's epistles, I find the teaching easy to understand, but with the two Corinthians books, I have to do a double-take in what is he teaching here. Mostly in the early chapters of the two books.

Someone mention to me that the reason may be that Paul is defending himself in the two books unlike the others.
