I haven't read any books that I can think of that were that awful. Next time give a girl some warning. I really don't like clowns. *shivers*
Lucky you! :P:P it's just a clown... in fact it's Ronald :P I never understood that fear of clowns thing. I mean I watched IT and all but I still don't get it.
Hahaha frogs? :P Don't worry I can function if I see a scorpion. Nothing like an irrational fear to make you look like a weirdo :P
Yes frogs. The sound they make is so creepy. And when there are a lot of them making that noise, ugh. Gives me the heebee geebees.
I just noiced HG was there too. I got distracted by the freaky ass clown. Why would you list HG Shiran?
I actually like a couple of those books a lot! lol
Haven't read most of them though, mostly to avoid the WTF am I reading scenario^^

Little Women wasn't horrible, it was just 98% boring. Maybe that's because I read it when I was seven, but my taste in books hasn't changed since I started reading them, and I'm fifteen now.The Hunger Games wasn't horrible either - for sure it was the best book in the entire series though, because Mockingjay was complete and utter bullshit, and not just because I'm a GaleKatniss shipper. However, it's definitely not the best book I've ever read. Far from it.
Eat, Pray, Love was awkward. My mom owns it. And it was just… Yeah, no.
I've never read Fifty Shades of Grey, but I know enough of it (snippets from the book + blogs + reviews) to know that it's a glorified piece of tripe complete with abuse, reasons to okay it, a never-ending amount of bad nonconsensual porn, and a main character I was smarter than at five years old who likes to use "inner goddess" to refer to her insanity (aka subconscious). Also, I write a lot better than E.L. James - her use of adjectives, punctuation and pretty much everything else makes me want to claw my eyes out.
I also know that it's Twilight fanfiction, which was the most horrible excuse of a book I've ever actually read in my entire life. Figures, right?
I really, really hated The Trial by Kafka. They made us read it in highschool for our A-level exams *shudder*But Vampire Diaries was also pretty bad...
Actually some of those books listed are on my "fave books of all times"- list... XD Like Little Women and The Hunger Games

I was like that too, when I saw it XD
There are some books up there that does not belong up there, like who the hell hates Guilty Pleasures? The Anita Blake series are awesome! Ya'll are outta your freaking minds, but any who, all the books I have read or own, I love them all. I never buy or read a book that doesn't interest me, not in the least, even if it's only the cover, the title or both that draws me in cause mostly if neither the title or the cover doesn't catch my eyes, I will not buy it and if I did most likely I wouldn't like it.
The Thief's Mistress by Yves Fey Absolutely disgusting novel, a disgrace to the Robin Hood folklore. The mistress is a fucking whore who sleeps with a GUY (that's his name) 5 times after Robin confesses his love for her. GUY also fucked a young boy in the past. Why did I get the feeling the mistress only ended up with Robin hood because it was in the original story, when the author really wanted the bitch to end up with GUY? I've always had a distaste for blonde female Romance protagonists. But this one was just a bitch and i was forcing myself to like her cuz of her sad past..as soon as i got fresh air I started hurling from the bitch's stench...a WHOOOORE, the dumb author ruined the story of Robin and Marion but making Marion a cold hearted slut.
DON'T READ THIS BOOK IF YOU LOVE ROMANCE.
Candide by Voltaire.... just... BURN FROM MIIIIIIIIND!!!!!! Especially the pictures of the edition I had to read... TORTURE!

Ah, but how we outgrow the mandatory readings of our school days and, if lucky, recover those great books this side of maturity! Crazy to introduce the most anxiety inducing book ever written (it describes perfectly our fate, before it happened)to a bunch of bored school kids. What were the examiners thinking!!! This is a book that challenges minds that have already undergone formation, it cannot possibly be appreciated by adolescents.

Cause 12 people hate it? Everyone is entitled to an opinion. I personally love it and can't wait for the second movie!
Fifty Shades of Grey without a doubt. I work in a bookstore and could not believe how popular it became in such a short amount of time. This and this alone made me curious enough to read it. I have regretted that decision ever since.
Heh, that's quite a list. I can't really add "The Castle" by Franz Kafka, since I hated the idea of reading the book so much I didnt open it. It was enough that I hated the movie, which was true to the book.There are books, which I find really really bad, but I can't say I hated them, because for me to hate a book I would first have to like it. I could hate the books which destroyed my enjoyment of a series, but that wouldn't be it.
The only option for me to hate a book would be if it was really really bad and I was forced to read it anyway (that's why I can't read a lot of books I was expected to read at school)
I'm looking over this list kind of hard to believe some people actually don't like some of the books up on the list.My vote was for Real
This book actually made me stop reading for a while...can you believe it?
I hated Everday by David L. It was so disgusting to me, I hated reading it and I hated thinking about it.
"Feuchtgebiete" (I don't know the English title, if there is one). I've only read the first few pages and it was the worst read of my life!

Any positive thinking book pisses me off, but I guess it just never really worked out with me. I have problems, but if it helps you, go for it! Also, I'd like to recommend the book You, which is nearly impossible to find. It's about a boy who tries to stop getting into fights, in part because his sister said she wanted to be like him when she grew up. It made me cry, and think and just wonder.
I think "Evermore" by Alyson Noel is the worst book ever. Did she write this book in first grade or what??? Oh, and "Taking Chances" by Molly McAdams is also terrible. Don't read it! I repeat, DO NOT READ this book!
Nicole wrote: "My vote was for Real - 
This book actually made me stop reading for a while...can you believe it? "
*Shudders at thought of book that bad. And I thought I'd had it rough with that 50 Shades rubbish. All that did was drive me into another book!
I though about doing the Across the Universe series, because it put some images in my head that I wish I could get rid of, *shudders*, but it wasn't actually bad, just a little uncomfortable.
Jane Eyre - I read it in Jr hi for a lit class, and absolutely hated it sooooooo much! It was the first (and so far the only) book I threw against a wall... It's been 40+ years and I STILL can't bear the thought of trying to read it!
Yeah I'm very very easy to please so for the one's I've read I've loved or at least enjoyed but other than that I haven't read any of the other ones.
I'm really confused as to why HG and TMI are listed here...sure, TID is better then TMI, but its still good and so is HG.
so many repeats on here lmao. Me Earl and the dying girl is awful awful awful. Lets write a book about making fun of cancer ...???
Ecstatic to see two other people couldn't stand the hideous melodrama that is Gone Girl. *ducks flying tomatoes* I know a lot of people liked it, but it gave me the impression of two middle schoolers imitating some TV reality show while playing house. The writing was perfectly understandable, I just don't find over the top immaturity entertaining. It's 3AM and I'm typing this on my phone. So, there's bound to be spelling/grammatical errors. Sorry!

While I stand with you on being a Katniss + Gale ship, and on never intending to read the horrible excuse of a novel/series that Fifty Shades of Grey is, I have to say Little Women is one of my favorites. The old writing style speaks very well to me, as I myself am an old soul. It’s a story of growing up with supportive sisters. And while I greatly respect your opinion (and you can totally keep it), I just hope you can give the book a second chance.
I got an ARC of Endgame: The Calling by James Frey, and I was so excited to read it. Spoiler: IT WAS SHIT
Whoa....there are a lot of books. I didn't really like The Scarlet Letter or Brave New World that much, but I know they're classics and have important lessons so can't hate that much. I just don't ever want to re-read as they're pretty messed up. I didn't like Insurgent or The Maze Runner either, but the Red Queen series is my total aughhh, I can't believe I read that!! moment. And I don't ever want to read Fifty Shades or Twilight so can't candidate for either.













































Btw, what the f*ck is up with that pic for this poll? Clowns freak me the hell out!!!
