Worst book you have read

[rockyracoon]

Leading on from chaptazbru's thread about the best books you have read, what are the worst.

Mine are The Time Travellers Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, what an absolute boring load of twaddle, this is closely followed by We Need To Talk about Kevin, which I am struggling to get through at the moment and Animal Farm by George Orwell, this I had to read at school and felt like crying everytime I was sat in my English Class.

dithering Blights
Midnights Children
Anything that gets highly recommended...

won't even try Jane Austen...

Oh and Jilly Cooper has written some jolly awful stinkers

I had to read the Twilight books to my younger sister because she is a fan and it was horrible, I hated every minute of it. I think if you write anything that gets turned into a TV series for teenagers you should be banned from writing for life.

again, Angela's Ashes. Mr. Chi and his family are from Dublin, and the way
they lived then, apparently, was the same as the book. Him and his sister
really in hysterics, comparing their life and the book. So...I tried it..nope.

I'm not saying you have to be Irish to understand it, maybe it helps,I'm sure
other families were raised in the same way. Go on, slate me now!!! x

I loved Angela's Ashes - and I'm not Irish. Wouldn't dream of slating you though. :o)
