worst books you’ve read

[Lavin]

not here to start wars, just wondering what books/series have stood out as really bad to you and why? would any changes have redeemed it?

The only one I can recall really disliking is called Tangerine. I don't even have a particular reason, I was just expecting more and it felt it never really went anywhere

It does sound interesting from the plot description.

I just finished Breakfast of Champions and I’m honestly disappointed. I love political satire but it didn’t feel like the most well done book despite it’s popularity. I think if it didn’t use the n word so much (literally multiple times in one sentence), I would’ve liked it more, and it felt a bit unrealistic with the most annoying narrator I’ve encountered in a while haha

A few months ago I saw a lot of booktok people talking about “Crush” and omg the writing was HORRENDOUS. The plot could have been good but it had a bad wattpad fan fiction feel in the way it was written. I honestly don’t understand the hype, or why in hell did the publisher buy a SEQUEL !

oh, I've read some horrible books, but one of my least favorites, which i couldn't even finish was The Casual Vacancy, from ~that~ author. bad writing, bad story, i just hate it

[Frankie]

There always seems to be one weirdly popular book around that's actually really badly written, I don't know how they do it!
I actually agree about The Casual Vanacy yeah, gave up half way too

[Camilla]

Also, I have an unpopular opinion because I don't like The Book Thief as well. Not that I hate it, I just thought it was tiring as hell
