Okay, for fun.
What is the undoubtedly -worst- book you have ever read?
shitarianasays answered: You know half of your answers are going to be Fifty Shades of Grey and Twilight, right?
…
Okay, you can say 50 or Twilight, but you have to either a) tell how you would have done it better, or b) include another selection. :)

Number the Stars. I hated that book. Maybe because I had to read it three years in a row.

femilly answered:
I didn’t enjoy reading Water For Elephants :/

beltaguise answered:
A book I read a looong time ago called “One For Sorrow, Two for Joy”. It’s hard to write decent animal fiction, but this was just bad
-
merfolkish answered:
Since 50sog and Twilight are off, I’d have to say ‘Death Comes for the Archbishop’
-
louisecleverly answered:
The Iron Dragon’s Daughter. It was a fantasy world with no explanation and a confusing, hard to follow story line. I gave up halfway through.
-
seedy-street answered:
I may get shot for this, but I didn’t like reading Life of Pi AT ALL. Interesting concept, but I disliked the way he wrote it.

So there’s this book by Kim Harrison called Once Dead, Twice Shy, and it is…a sixteen-year-old uses “son of a dead puppy” as an insult.

musicalcakes answered:
On Fire’s Wings. Everything in it was hilariously bad, but the sex scene had me laughing for days.
-
argyleempire answered:
Boston Jane. So bad. It’s about an awesome girl who goes to finishing school, becomes a bitch, & at the end, realizes she is a bitch. wtf?

thewritingfortress answered:
Pay It Forward, which really sucks as it was suppose to have a good message, but was lost among the stupid romance/awful characters
-
mumblashark answered:
gonna have to go with shark wars. look it up. it’s so, so hilariously bad.

thatotherspectre answered:
Twilight. And to improve it, I would have never written it in the first place to save millions of people the terror of that fucked up series

birdwithapeopleface reblogged this from fuckyeahcharacterdevelopment and added:
Urgh… um, I couldn’t even get through Twilight (six chapters and I failed), so I can’t claim that one. Gotta be The Da...

galvanizedmobster answered:
Standard Twilight hate HOWEVER: I would have made the main characters less whiny. Hell, I’d have gone with Carlile or Alice as the mains.
-
strangeneworld answered:
the hunger games-specifically the last book. or the whole series, hated both. Would have had less fashion, more action less romance
-
cakepop11 answered:
The Alchemyst The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel by Michael Scott. Omg like no character development whatsoever. =,=
-
theyseemerollins answered:
Not the *worst* but I hated “The Art of Fielding”. Also “Incarceron” was lame. “Fire” was just poorly *written*
-
ocentropy answered:
A tie between Eragon and The Fire Within. Those two series together ruined dragons for me.
-
atalli answered:
Evermore. Just… Evermore.

omskivar answered:
It’s a toss-up between Twilight and Eragon for me. They’re both so damn BORING when they really shouldn’t be!

turtleoftheabyss answered:
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time.
-
lonelyassassin answered:
The Invisible Man. Okay, I know it’s a classic. I just found it really dull and tedious.
-
triplewing answered:
Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia / Margaret Stohl. They put in way too many fucking useless leads and the story eventually got nowhere.
-
fifteenthjessica answered:
Breaking Dawn- Meyer breaks several rules in her own story and fiction in general. Fifty sucks on the grounds of being lazy fan fiction.
-
ivi942 answered:
This book by a 14-year old. It was a mix of dragon ball and random fantasy movies, it was terrible, but at least the villain was sexy.
-
aimforfairytales answered:
“Fallen” by Lauren Kate.

thethingsipassdown answered:
Fifty Shades of Gray, it made me cringe every other sentence -.-
-
helenabotulinus answered:
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare. And I read 50S, Twilight Saga and Vampire Kisses. But they are at least entertainingly bad.
-
bactaqueen answered:
It was an art history textbook on Rome. I wasn’t the only one, either Even our professor wrote the author to tell him it sucked.
-
dressthesavage answered:
Behind the Scenes at the Museum by Kate Atkinson. It made me hate her so, so much. The way she wrote about death was really disrespectful
-
amateurcatalyst answered:
The worst thing i’ve ever read wasn’t a book, but a webcomic. It was Bleedman’s “doujinshi”. Oh, me and my weeb phase… *shameful past*
-
g0dots answered:
Any of the books they let you read in elementary school. They were uninteresting and cliche. I guess it made sense for my age, but it sucked.

the books from the Made in the USA series

Anything by P.C./Kristin Cast. Oh, and Fire by Kristin(sp?) Cashore. Completely unnecessary

whoisjimmygold answered:
Anything by Murakami. I know many Tumblrers wants to have his literary babies, but the writing just seems amateur, the characters forced.

Thirteen Letters or something like that. Can’t remember, was pretty terrible.

Lolita. I know, ‘it’s one of the greatest masterpieces in literature history’ but fuck it.

gothamisburning answered:
I really hated ‘Catherine Called Birdy’. It was slow and managed to have nothing happen the entire time.

chocolatechilipepper answered:
James Patterson’s Maximum Ride series. I can’t even fit my venomous disappointment into this 80-character reply. Trust me, I tried.
-
anapplescruff answered:
Oh god, I can’t remember the title. It was this 450 science fiction mess the author literally had to give away to get anyone to read it.

brucethegirl answered:
this history book (read for class) about Robespierre, but it was narrated and awful took away from the story to make it like fiction.
-
xxdaughterofapolloxx answered:
Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz. and Marked by P. C. Cast and Kristin Cast , they were terrible.
-
terriblevalveartandocs answered:
I have to say “Gamer Girl” and “Does My head look big in this?”. Both self fulfilment sue books. Read if you enjoy hating this stuff.
