What's the worst book you have ever read and why?

There are a lot. I'll list a few.

Twilight:
Just horrible. Bad messages, no plot, no character depth, mary sue + gary stu, no logic, unrealistic, bad writing, just horrible in every way. It should never have been published.

Need: wanna-be Twilight. I couldn't believe a book could be worse than Twilight, and this book proved it was possible.

The Host: Do you want to know the level of creativity? She named her planet "Fire-World". Yeah, just a general idea. It was just as horrible and anti-feminist as Twilight.

Twilight
What makes people so bothered about that tree- wasting, stereo-typical, no-plot pile of junk?!?!?!?! I'm sorry but i just don't get twilight mania

"On The Road" por Jack Kerouac without a doubt. It is supposed to be a modern classic (how it became one I can't imagine!) but hardly any of it makes sense and it isn't even written well. All of the characters in it are completely insane. I got halfway through before I had to give up.

It's basically about a guy called Sal Paradise who travels around America, and a maniac called Dean, who is the most annoying twit ever but Sal is obsessed with him and follows him around. There are huge chunks of the book which don't make sense, where the writer is just rambling on about Dean or one of the other lunatics. There is this guy who "rolled his neck in spastic ecstasy", (Dean calls him "the most wonderful of all", I have no idea why) and another who says he "walked on 125th rua 'under water' with all the other fish", and ther's also a guy who thinks he is a ghost! This gives you some idea of the kind of people in the book.

I could go on but I would be here all night! Sorry for leaving such a long comment, but I really can't stand this book, and wanted to share my pain.

TWILIGHT
and playing beatie bow. One of the most slow paced books alive

Besides Twilight (I'm a little sick of listing its faults lol) a book called Louisa Elliot. I got it because my name is Louisa and I thought it'd be funny. It was a 650 page book about a girl who has an affair with an Irish soldier in the 19th century. It sounds like my cup of chá but 650 pages of pretty much nothing but relationship actually wears you down. I'm a sucker for romance... just not that much. Anyway I got like 500 pages in. I'll finish it someday. I already know she ends up with her cousin anyway. (I said it was bad)

The worst book I have ever read....It would have to be The Dragon Lords daughters..how was a 14 ano old supposed to know Bertrice Small is a trashy writer...nothing but horrible detailed sex-scenes and a pathetic story line.....I am a romantic not a fã of that garbage!

"A war like no other" por Victor Davis Hanson
That book to me was just dull. it was a long and dreadful narrative. Maybe because I hadn't yet developed the interest for the classics... I don't know...

we have to read this book for English at school called Deadly Unna? its por an australian author and it is horrible, worst book i have ever read and i haven't even finished it (though i was meant to finish it ages ago!)

The Phantom in Manhattan por Frederick Forsythe. It was supposed to be a sequel to ALW's version of The Phantom of the Opera, but it was awful. The only good thing in the whole book was (spoiler alert!) when Raoul turned out to be impotent, so his and Christine's son was really the Phantom's (I always knew Raoul was a Pansy! hahaha!). But other than that...yeah, it sucked.

i-luv-jazz-hale says:
There are lots of books I don't like. I really hate the Darren Shan saga (it is SO badley written)
Brenny_is_cool says: I hate every single book that Lousie Robinson has written. The Georgia Nicholson series are 'typical teenager' styled wrting, why cant a diary be a bout something interesting, like a murderer or oh, I dont knnow, GOD! This book is about normal everyday life. BORING!

I know of many terrible books, but one that ive read that really disopointed me was "Arsenic and old lace" the movie was good and funny, but the book was not very descriptive and was written like a script. Another bad book was "Batman:no man's land" por Greg Rucka. Allot of the information was wrong and incunclusive, compeling me to read the comic books instead.

Girls in Trucks por Katie Crouch
does make any sense. all it is, its a book about a teen girl that grows up as a sex and drug addict. then she has a kid and everything is better. no real story to the book.

Mice of men
doesnt even make any sense...

1. Jim the Boy. It was so BORING.
2. It was called "White Wolf" or something like that. I couldn't even finish it. Trust me, if you knew me, you would understand that it's a big deal. I NEVER leave a book unfinished, even if it's boring/or I hate it. But that book was bad...

Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I didn't like it, it repeats a lot ! And Inkheart i couldn't finish it!

Twilight and do I really have to explain? I feel as if I've had to explain this over a hundred times to every twihard I meet. They're all like "ZoMg hoowwww could u not lykee twiLIGHT?!!!!1!" There are a bajillion reasons why. XDRoseLovesHP summarized it pretty good: lack of plot, no character development, etc etc.

Monster... Have no idea why i even picked up that book. So boring.

I think, the worst book I've read was "Crime and punishment" Dostoyevsky, because of mood of this book - it's full of crimes, evil and dirt. I had to read it at school, but I've read only first 50 pages and droped it away, because of repugnance to it.

Well there's the obvious one and the not-so-obvious one.

The obvious one:
You've guessed it! Twilight! It's not even a saga it's just four books they should use to punish students in detention. I mean, someone gets in a fight and the teacher goes "So what will the punishment be? A whipping? Or shall we just make them read the Twilight books?" the students would probably go "PLEASE whip us! Whipping! PLEASE don't make us read those books! PLEASE!"

Number one: Bella is so miserable! She just really doesn't want to be happy! There's a part in there where it says "I had a little spark of hope, which I grimly tried to repress." I mean, fuck, wouldn't wanna be happy for like a moment. She just needs to cheer up and watch some Monty pitão, python movies, but no, she'd find them offensive to her selfish needs.

Number two: she is soooooooooo not a celebrity! Whens he first walks into school everyone's talking about her. She's not that special!

Number three: She is not sensible. It says she should be afraid that Edward was following her, but instead she's happy about it! I mean earlier on she was about to be raped, and if Edward hadn't come to save the dia like in any Twilight book, she probably would've been like "Awrh I should be scared, but I'm not, I like the attention."

Number four: EDWARD CULLEN IS NOT REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET THIS IN YOUR HEADS!!!!!!!!!

The not so obvious one: ... There's nothing worse than Twilight, so I can't think of it now.

Usually i don't finish a horrible book. I read like half of it and then drop it.

The Phantom of Manhattan por Frederick Forsyth: this is meant to be the sequel to Phantom of the Opera.. The intro is pretty much a Leroux bashing. And the story itself has so many inconsistencies it isn't funny. And the characters, Erik has been diluted to a shadow of his former self, yet his former bad bunda self has been used against him in a completely incorrect way. All in all a rubbish book..

Twilight: Now as I said above about Erik losing his bad ass, that is what these books have done to vampires. Sparkling vampires?! 0_0 What the hell was that? but moving on to the disastrous plot. Bella is all so down on herself, yet she uses words like "ivory skinned" and "slender" to describe herself. There is her inability to do anything for herself, she always needs Jacob or Edward there to save her and in general she just makes stupid decisions, like she thinks Edward stalking her is the best thing ever, good impression to set on young girls, if a boy stalks you that's good *thumbs up*. . . And it is also terribly written.

The Twilight Saga.
Seriously.
I DID NOT need a FULL PAGE descrição in order to Know what Edward's EYES looked like. There. I said it.
