PLL and HON are awful like that.I find HON worse though, because those are written so badly now.
At least PLL has a few good twists.
I've heard that there will be a 15th book in PLL coming, titled 'Toxic'. I really thought it ends at the 14th!
..When the plot seems way too much dramatic.
You know a book is bad when you wonder how the author even managed to get such trash published.

So depressing when you consider it took JK Rowling 12 tries to get someone to publish her amazing series & then these ones get published no problem, even though they're less entertaining than toilet paper... & less useful.

How long does it take to kill Allison for good???????????
At least the HON has more humor than PPL... and we know that the next book is also the LAST one!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!
P.S: I do wonder how they get them published??? I mean are they THAT succesfull????

You know a book is bad when your own life is more appealing.
I think this is my favourite thread in all the groups!
How bout this... When you're reading a romance or NA book, and the sex scenes just feel like filler!
Mod
Glad you like it Jodi ☺ I just like having somewhere where we can all vent over rubbish books ☺
You know when a book is bad ..... when you can predict what happens next.
You know a book is bad when it's made of metaphors that don't make any sense! -.- Hi Shatter Me. xD
@Elizabeth Yes! Ikr! I read books to somehow live another life, a better and more interesting one. xD
You know a book is bad...When it's dragging and you don't know the sequence anymore.
ex. VAMPIRE DIARIES.
You know a book is bad...When the book is too chunky, and you keep on reading waiting for something to happen.
By the end of the book, it ends with nothing special..

Oh dear :(

Oh yikes, that would confuse me!
You know a book is bad...When histrionics were exploited and strewn all over the pages.
When the protagonist is acting weak and stupid and illogical.
When there's nothing exciting happening.
When it makes my eyes roll all by themselves.
You know a book is bad when the female lead character always gets this "foggy" feeling whenever the boy kisses her. GIRL. IT. IS. SO. DAMN. ANNOYING.

This is so true. It's making my blood boil whenever this happens to me. Lol.

Well said. And so true! :)

lol…or she's always "crashing" into him, or having an "accident" that leads to her being held by him! lol!

lol…or she's always "crashi..."
Or she will faint, literally because of his "hotness" or she will eye-eating him or she will get angry but when he speaks, she will literally feel the gooey feelings inside her.. HUH! LOL.
You know a book is bad when... You try to finish it as soon as you can so you can have a proof of how terrible that book was.

@Hannelore: Me too! For me, the book was so poetic. :)

And so I en..."I can't manage what you're doing Hannelore - reading too many books all at once! I tend to mix information. But I guess it's effective for some people :)
You know a book is bad when it's easier making a review for it, and it's more fun finding gifs that sums up your feelings perfectly than reading it.
Mod
That acknowledgements page at the end has never looked sweeter

You know a is bad when you glad the end happened and could of came sooner.

I enjoyed HON until about book 8. They've been pretty awful since then.
@Matthew Haha. Shatter Me is a great book, really. I just hate the metaphors. But the plot is awesome. The book isn't necessarily bad, just made it an example for that. xD
@Maddison I disagree with that. I respect your opinion tho. When there's romance, a book just gets some plus points from me. Whether or not it's the center of the story.
