Twilight!! I mean when I read it for the first time it was really good and when reading it recently... the book seem to be really different. I wonder how a book that I have liked all of a sudden is a trash !!

'After' series. I still regret starting that book. It is the only book that i stopped at midway by choice.
I hate Abundance of Katherines and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Cursed child was an utter mess. At times I found it horribly hilarious. And even imagining Harry, Hermione and Ron as adults and parents was so hard actually impossible! I really didn't like the plot Abundance of Katherines. I worst part, it was filled with my most hated subject Mathematics!

Honestly such a badly written book so confusing and boring i didn't even finish it even though i hate leaving books unfinished
To be honest, Divergent. I don't know, maybe I'm to old for it (17) but I was dissapointed and think it's overhyped
The Shatter Me series. The writing, the characters and the “twists” that were just there for a element if surprise, no proper foreshadowing. I have a lot of other problems with the series and Juliette genuinely makes me angry.

I have a couple of books. Vampire Diaries , 99% Mine... But the book that steals the prize even after all these years is Thirteen Reasons Why. I still can't wrap my mind around the unrealistic, exaggerated, nonsense that is that book. It has the absolute worst message about suicide, depression and all the sensitive topics that it handles.
City of Bones. I really wanted to like this book/series as I know that it has a rather large presence in the YA fantasy subgenre but I could not get myself to finish it. Something about the writing style that I could not latch onto. Please don't murder me, but I found it to be rudimentary and that's what ultimately made me stop reading and give it to a friend who wanted to try it.
Don't hate me. I don't like ACOTAR series. I'll give the third book a chance to change my mind soon.
I did not hate this series, but I just could not really get into it. I did not absolutely love Harry Potter. I stopped at book 2 and did not finish it. I want to try and continue the series, but I just was not into it that much.

I read the first two Harry Potter books, forcing myself through like it was an academic assignment, and then got halfway through the third book before I declared it a DNF. I don't hate Harry Potter, but both the book series and the movies were just things I couldn't get into, I don't know why.
I read Matched a while ago and it disappointed me so much, mainly because I had a lot of expectations set in the book and it didn't meet a single one of them. It is quite a popular book and people seem to have liked it, but I found it incredibly boring and ended up hating the main character.
I read a while ago, The Darkest Mind series, I heard it was really good so decided to read it. I enjoyed the first book and though it was good. The second book just turned me off of it and I could t finish it. The pacing seemed slow, the characters -to me at least- seemed to get dull and the story seemed to drag on. My opinion from trying to read it, love the author not the series.

Um.. I heard The Betrothed was going to be supper good. But hears a spoiler.... it was boring, not very interesting, and poorly written. I Loved the selection series but this book just did not give me what I crave from Keria Cass's books. Also I was not a huge fan of the maze runner series. I have never watched the movies so... if you love the series only because of the movies don't judge me. HAHA
In addition, I did not like this award winning book named Onion John.. I know weird name but I thought It was one of those heart warming books that are just fun to read... I was SOOO wrong. It was probably the most boring book I have ever read in my life.
I'm sorry to whoever I may offend out there BUT I loathed the final book in the Divergent series, Allegiant. I also could never get into The Maze Runner. I tried so hard to like it but I just had to DNF that one....
Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. Read the whole book, but the first 20 pages made me hate the rest of it.Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.
Divergent was good, but the second and third books didn’t do it for me. Also Murder On The Orient Express doesn’t have the most satisfying of endings (I have a review about that if you want to read it... 😏)

Didn’t like the unsatisfying ending of all passengers being guilty……too boring!
dont hate me people but: mockingjay (hunger games), the maze runner (all of them). im not into sci fic thats for sure
Anything written by John Green... He has pretty decent ideas just really bad execution in my opinion. I only remember reading The Fault In Our Stars, Turtles All The Way Down, Paper Towns

THE SELECTION! Oh my goodness! I think it's mainly because it was targeted at a younger audience and I read this for the first time pretty recently instead of in middle school like the other people I heard.
Everyone has a story by savi sharma. read it because friend loved and recommended it to me. but ended. up hating it. waiting to unhaul them

When I first started reading it, I was fascinated with the caste system of Ilea and the problems it created for everyone. I thought, "Hey, this book is going somewhere."
Then it changes into "The Bachelor" for high school girls. It was as if all of the good speculative material in there was to make it dramatic for poor little America to have gotten Selected, then dropped because now we have to get into pettiness with the girls and the royal family. Celeste is the model-esque snob, America causes a stir by not being materialistic, blah blah blah. I've kind of given up on it, myself.
