DarkerSarah wrote:The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime by Mark Haddon. Shut up. I know the new age emo contemporary lit crowd is going to hate me for this one. I cannot express to you how much I hated this book. I only read it because my best friend asked me to. I understand what he was trying to do, but the book just sucked.

I also hated that book, it was about the author and his problem whatever its called. Something Syndrome... don't know how to spell it.

Autism, Aspergous Syndrome. I actually liked the book.

1.) Harry Potter by J.K. Rowlings. I
t was horrible!
2.) Black Stallionby whoever,
i though it was just stupid.
3.) Alice in Wonderlandby i don't care.
hate the movie, hate the book.
4.) Goosebumps by i seriously don't know.
i'm with snoink, hate the series with a passion.
5.) Just So Stories by Rudyard Kipling.
We had to read this in 5th grade. It was torture i tell you.

TORTURE!

Harry Potter is the best book series of all time!

I honestly can't figure out what is wrong with you people who don't like it.

Totally Agreed

4) Of Mice and Men - John Steinbeck. Snore?

Of Mice and Men is a brillant book.

1.Artemis Fowl: That is all i can think of god i hate that book.

the only book that really sprung to mind was...

The Devil Wears Prada - by Who Cares...oh man the main character in this book was so incredibly disgustingly awful that I actually feel sick just thinking about her.

The Iceberg Hermit by Whatshisface...

6th grade L.A. book. Argh.

I don't remember all the books I've hated with a passion. I usually put books that I don't like down immediately, so I don't usually retain titles.

No particular order.

The Monster's Legacy by somebody. It was boring and just...stupid. Some random epic quest or something.

Engraved in Stone by some lady. It was so cheesy, I predicted the ending just by reading the book jacket. I think that some random kid with no interest in writing whatsoever could have come up with something better.

Good Luck, Mr. Bowditch by someone. Read it in 5th grade because we had too. About some guy who starts off as an apprentice in colonial America and ends up sailing all over the place then becoming a professor or something. I don't really remember. It's not worth remembering.

The last T*Witches books. Loved the series, stuck with it until the bitter end, but by the last few books, it just seemed to be the same old cycle. The 10th book (where they FINALLY got initiated) was okay, but it might have been more interesting if they did that as the 7th or 8th book and focused on how they went on as "official" witches.

The Pearl by John Steinbeck. Is there a single person in this world that really likes that book? Some poor guy finds a pearl and it messes up their lives. Boring. At least it was only 90 pages, but since it was a school book, we had to drag it out for over a month.

Some of you have horrible taste-the worst examples is your hate of mice and men and WATERSHIP DOWN. That is one of the best books EVER written!!!! Read it again in ten years and maybe you will understand. Poor children not able to appreicate adult books properly. Anyone smart enuoph shuold totallyt read those ^ two books.

Right now the only book i can think of that i hate was The Dog With Golden Eyes.

Watership down consists of the most bland characters, hardley any plot line and boring repetitive description. I couldnt care less what a warren of rabits are doing lol.

Watership Down/Of Mice and Men are just.....no. I'm sorry but no! I have to agree with Adam 101, more on Of Mice and Men, though. It's such a non-story - the way Steinbeck writes is just so detatched - I didn't even cry when the retard dude got shot. And I cry at anything. I just really don't see the whole fuss over Steinbeck, that's all. Watership Down was an ok film though

DarkerSarah - The Curious Incident of the Dog in The Night-time by Mark Haddon is brilliant! I mean, when you put into context how young he was when he wrote it...I really loved that book.

Like I said, I appreciate the fact that he wrote it to bring more awareness to the way an austic child thinks, but I didn't enjoy the style it was written. I didn't enjoy the plot. I didn't enjoy the excessive cursing. I did like the emotionlessness, though, to give it some credit. I mean and he definitely deserves props for his point with the piece. I guess I like books with a little more poetic/artistic influence. But whatever. Each to his own.

I guess I could identify with him to a certain extent, as my cousin is autistic. I found the book quite amusing, not emotionless. I don't think it's that he's emotionless, just that he's more matter of fact about certain things which a lot of people would look at, or see him doing, and say "what?!". I thought he had an interesting outlook on life.

Ok Alice in wonderland and just so storys wer also awesome books. How do you think books actually become classics? Everyone just says 'wow! this book is eashpeashally dull! lets bring it to future generations so they can be bored too'? Books become classics from exelence.
The Pearl was a bad book but Of Mice and Men rocks!
Watershipdown is the father of all animal books to date!

:-s Ok, I have absolutely no idea what the hell you justsaid in the first part of your post! x
