A Court of Thorns and Roses This just wasn't for me. Also Falling Kingdoms After reading two books I still can't get what the fuss is all about.
Beautiful Creatures. Barely made it through the first book and stopped reading the series halfway through the second book. Not that it was bad, I just wasn't feeling it.
JAYNE wrote: "LOOKING FOR ALASKA"I'm totally with you on this. I didn't like Alaska at all and I felt like I spent half the book yelling at Miles to stop being so dumb.
Same here, don't like Hush hush series. I only read Hush hush and crescendo, but it was pretty boring for me.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I'm still not over it, they literally butchered all of my favorite characters and the story didn't make any sense. I was more heartbroken than angry.
The passenger Series.I read the first book and I'm currently reading the sequel but... it's hard for me to connect. I think it's the writing style of the descriptions. :/
Girl on a train. The mistake was so boring and the characters weren't likable. It was the first book I've ever skipped a couple chapters lol
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Everyone was hyping it up and so I decided to see what they hype was. It was by far one of the worst novels I have ever read in my life! It was boring, hard to get into, and just a waste of time. I couldn't even finish it. I wasted a week of my life that I will never get back just trying to see if I could tolerate it. Alas, it wasn't so, wasting my time with this book only made me hate it all the more!
The Shadow in the Wind, I think it was called. I kept waiting for it to get good but never happened. Sales associate at a bookstore raved about it so I bought it. So disappointing!

So the movie for that was recently on some list on Facebook of 20 movies every 2000 girl loved and I had never heard of the that movie (or the book). Thank you for clarifying some.

I actually quite liked the movie when I was younger, so that made me pick up the book and I was so so disappointed.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire HunterI seriously hated this book so much. I finished it, because I promised myself if I start a book I will finish it no matter what... This book was almost painful to finish, I hated every last page.
Meg wrote: "The 5th wave. just cos i found the main character really annoying and she had like no personality!"Agreed, 5th Wave was awful. Granted I HATE dystopian books/movies/shows, so that may have made me biased against it.
They made me read Who moved my cheese for work. Everyone said how profound and wise it is. I felt like it was mocking me... And I felt stupider for reading it. I HATED that book. Thats 30 mins of my life that was sucked away.
Eat,Pray,Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. Some friends of mine had a challenge, to read this book in a month. Maybe it's just a guy thing, maybe not, but it was hard for me to get in to this book.

I did not like Edward or Bella in the books. Neither of them seemed to be strong characters. I did like the movie though. I thought they did a better job with the characters and events.
I've honestly met more people who hate Twilight than like it at this point. Which is odd, makes you wonder where the sales came from haha. Twilight is kind of like the Nickelback of books. Everyone claims to hate them, yet their albums keep going gold.
GRACELING!!! No offense to anyone who liked this book! It was just super predictable and normal (for fantasy at least) and it really wasn't my fave. I'm all for a strong female character but I couldn't relate to Katsa at all! What's the point in having an awesome female character if you can't connect with her! Anyway, rant over... for now!

I read these when I was quite a bit younger (I think I was like 10?) and I just remember them getting weirder and worse as it went on D:

OMG same!!!! I thought it was boring and dragged on waaayyyyyy too slow. I just picked a random spot and read on and off. I even caught myself thinking about something else while my eyes skimmed the page.

Siama wrote: "Daughter of Smoke & Bone"Agreed totally agreed. Not the plot nor the view was that beautifully written.
Oh god, I just could not. I hated both Anna and the cheating crush she had. None of the characters were likable at all, but Anna took the cake.
Also, I disliked how the author used her characters as a way to bash other authors. I might not like the sad contemporary style myself, but the way she used Anna's feelings towards her father was a clear hateful statement against books of that nature.

Same, for the hush hush anyway, I haven't read gone yet. My fire drill absolutely adores the Hush Hush series, and could not stop bugging me about it. So I read it to see what was the big deal, I didn't like it all that much, I didn't really knew what was going on. Then there was the harassment. Or at least borderlining it. Ughhh
