Life After Life by Kate Atkinson (made my eyes glaze over so much)The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black (save yourself, there are better vampire fiction out there)
Anyone under 16: I definitely do NOT recommend Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist. There is a lot of swearing (a LOT) and a lot of stuff you don't need to be reading yet.

Aw, I liked this. I can understand why you'd think this though. The start of the book isn't that engaging.
I'm sorry but, Anne Frank's diary. No.

Lol. That's exactly how I feel. The writing is especially bothering me. It feels kind of rushed and sloppy. Well, to me anyway. *shrugs*
It's really a matter of opinion.
It's really a matter of opinion.
all characters were horrible.Nothing happened.And it was just ewwwwwww
Nothing happened . Horrible characters. It was boring.
I have one that I sat through maybe two chapters and I couldn't read anymore. 3 Willows: The Sisterhood Grows It confused me to no end.
I've been going back and forth on the Tahereh Mafi books/series. For every good review I read, there's 1-2 negative ones.
@Carina haha that's almost the exact opposite of what i thought :) i liked the first two but the 3ed one was the best
Just don't even waste your time on this one. Confusing and just plain awful. ( I am deeply sorry for any lovers of this book )
Don't read a book that you don't like.... Maybe Twilight, and the third book of Hunger Games... many people didn't like it. (Mocking Jay).
^ I agree that Mockingjay wasn't as good as the first two but in a trilogy, you kinda had to read the 3rd one. Or at least skim it if it sucks lol.
I am the messenger
This book was a waste of paper. It was really choppy and the characters were flat and terrible
Die for me series are amazing, I loved them! All of the three books were really good. (It's a great trilogy).
Evermore - To typical of girl has a crush on new boy, who seems mysterious. The Rush - Really didn't get this book. It was just awful.

Agreed, that book was awful
Stay away from Witch and Wizard by James Patterson. The first one was actually decent but after that it went really bad really fast.
Ashley, I'm so glad you posted that. I read the first book Witch and Wizard and thought it was all right and I think I read the next two books but I can't tell you a single thing about 'em. I realized I just didn't care about the characters, plot or ending. I rarely refuse to finish a series when I've started but I just couldn't do it.
At Jennifer yeah I agree! I can't even touch the forth one because I can barely remember the previous books.
Usually I don't like bagging books, cos opinions are so subjective...But I have to say don't read Across the Universe by Beth Revis
(I also don't like ruining the prefacing statement with the word 'but', but I did it anyway...)
I recently finished Winter's Tale and definitely would not recommend it at all! The movie came out in Feb and my book club I watching the movie soon. Hopefully the movie will be better!!
