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

Mine would have to be "Criss Cross". I thought that it was going to be a romance book, but it was just following the boring lives of two teens.

There are a lot. I'll lista 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 te 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.

GASP! I think that Stephanie Meyer is a wonderful writer. But I guess thats just my opinion :D Can I ask te a domanda XDRoseLuvsHP? Do te believe in mythical creatures? Do te think te have a good imagination? (This is not supposed to be offensive, so please do not take it that way) :)

lol I think maybe because of Edward being the most "perfect guy" o something. I liked the Twilight series, but it is most definitely NOT my preferito book. I absolutely can't take most of the characters, to be honest. But I still like the books. A lot of people get al crazy over it though!! My friend even has pictures of Lautner and Rob and KISSES the freaking foto everyday. I seriously don't get why people are so obsessed.

"On The Road" da 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 o 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 strada, via 'under water' with all the other fish", and ther's also a guy who thinks he is a ghost! This gives te 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.

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 tè but 650 pages of pretty much nothing but relationship actually wears te 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 detto it was bad)

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...

The Phantom in Manhattan da 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 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" da Greg Rucka. Allot of the information was wrong and incunclusive, compeling me to read the comic libri instead.

Girls in Trucks da 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

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.

1-2vampire said:
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 libri 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? o 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 pitone, 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 giorno 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.

Hey. This is not meant to be offensive and I asked the same domanda to the first commento above...1-2vampire, do te believe in anything supernatural? Because it sounds as if te dont - judging only da your commenti - and I think that perhaps te need realistic libri to read. I am a huge Twilight fan, and I have the most manic imagination EVER. Sorry, this is such a long comment. But the thing where te detto "EDWARD CULLEN IS NOT REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" totally sums up the fact that te don't believe and never will in Vampiri#From Dracula to Buffy... and all creatures of the night in between. o sirene o fate o whatever until te can actually see it before your eyes. Hope I helped :D

Masked127 said:
The Phantom of Manhattan da 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 culo self has been used against him in a completely incorrect way. All in all a rubbish book..

Twilight: Now as I detto above about Erik losing his bad ass, that is what these libri 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 o 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 te that's good *thumbs up*. . . And it is also terribly written.
