What books don't you like?
Books I didn't like - Erm... Well there's a lot XD
Treasure Island
Sooooo boring. Good story, but soooooooo boring. I was falling asleep in class -_-
Everworld
Hate this book so much. It isn't very well written and I think that the author was trying too hard. The characters have classic personalities, but it just seems a bit too goofy. Me no likey.

The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen.....
It made me want to barf!
It made me want to barf!
Twilight sagaIt is quite boring and drags on at random parts
Some people might disagree but thats what i think :3
The Red Pony was one I hated. It put me off John Steinbeck for years - decades. It wasn't until my son read Of Mice and Men & got me to read it that I even tried anything else of his, then I quite liked several novels.
Mod
The worst book ever I don't understand how it can even be considered a book. It's just soo pointless!!
Dream Awake by Gwen hayes
I was really excited to read this book because the first one wasn't that bad. But they keep repeating stuff that I already know from the first book and it's soo slow.
That Summer, by Sarah DessenPride and Prejudice, Jane Austen
The Amulet of Samarkand, Jonathan Stroud
Oops forgot to say why…That Summer - too short, none of the characters were really likable.
Pride and Prejudice - long and extremely boring
The Amulet of Samarkand - I don't even know why I picked this book up (it was my sister's) but I regretted reading it as soon as I was finished because I totally didn't understand the world it was set in, or the magic. It was awful.
Books I hate...well, I only have two books on Goodreads with one star, so here are those:Uninvited by Amanda Marrone
Unleashed by Kristopher Reisz
Both were vulgar and just terrible.
Others I've read recently that didn't do it for me:
Fallen by Lauren Kate---Main character=Mary Sue times a trillion.
Tithe by Holly Black---Same as the Uns above, but had some good parts.
Crossed by Ally Condie---I really liked the first one, but this was slow and and the two POVs merged into one after a while....
So, yeah =/.
Mod
I thought it was okay---I read the rest of the series---but I just didn't like Luce...or Daniel until at least the third book =/.
Mod
Cool =). That's how I am with Harry Potter and The Hunger Games and Divergent.
Mod
I am not a fan of some paranormal books.In which things that we can't even imagine...If the characters are good..I will sit there till I finish the whole series.
Ooh cool! I hope you like them, Shavony!Oh my gosh, Gouri, the girl that did my pedicure yesterday had a Deathly Hallows tattoo! We had a wonderful conversation ;D.

I wanna get a deathly hallows mark but something like a locket?Like Xenophilius has!
Yeah! Me too! I seriously need to get some jewelry that has it on it...but I might never take it off XD.
me too..my best friend had to break up with his girlfriend because she thought Harry Potter was lame..when he told me the news I gave him a high five..I regret the last part but on second thoughts who needs a girlfriend like that,right?
Haha it'd be cool to meet someone like that! =D
That's part of the reason I love books---they draw people together from all corners of the globe =).
I'm glad you think so =). Goodreads is proof! =D
So...I didn't really like Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements either...
This guy becomes invisible and befriends an angsty blind girl...pretty odd o.O.
nope..actually..I haven't..what kind of a reader am I?lol!

The Pledge by Kimberly Derting
It was good in some aspects but I just couldn't stand the story. I didn't like the characters but the world she created was cool.
Divergent
*squeal* please don't kill me! I know many people like this book but I cannot stand it. Don't get me wrong, it's well written, it's interesting and exciting but I do not understand Tris' motives or thoughts at all. They're so different from mine. And I don't like Four either. And I also don't like how she's a 'Divergent'. Isn't everyone a bit of everything? And if she is, how is it she's a danger? Anyways, it's too confusing to make out. 0.0
