Really? I read it when I was a bit younger, and I enjoyed it by the end.

I read an article about it, though. It said he made the whole thing up.


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

where did you read it?


message 14: by [deleted user] (new)

I dnt think thts true. It could be a rumor.


message 15: by [deleted user] (new)

i agree. or an unreliable website.

An online article. ABC News Thing. He did build schools in the two countries, but took liberties with much of what happened.


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

huh. wow.


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm still thinking those r rumors. Possibly his rival wrote it. Or someone who was jelous.

Cheyenne (cheylaraine) | 1882 comments Mod
I still respect the dude for what he did. He built schools in the two countries that the book was set in, but I was disappointed to learn that he lied about some of what happened. Really disappointed.

And that could be true, too. Who knows? If so, then that's great.


message 21: by [deleted user] (new)

Hah...don't hate me but I've never read it

My teacher forced me to read it.

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
Oh, yep that's definitely one way to get someone to hate a book. That's why I've always hated book reports, they just teach kids to hate reading


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Yep, after reading Hoot, it made me go through the phase of "I hate Books".


message 26: by the sound of Autumn, Oh dear. (new)

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
I've never been through that phase, but I've seen my friends go through it, and it makes little pieces of me die inside.


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

But I'm over it now and you wouldn't believe how many books I read each week.


message 28: by [deleted user] (new)

Lol, I read like 10 a week


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm reading out of mind rite now


message 30: by the sound of Autumn, Oh dear. (new)

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
Hahaha, yeah I know what you mean. I haven't been reading many books per week though, because I've been working on The More Than Complete Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which is over 600 pages, so. Just finished it yesterday!


message 31: by [deleted user] (new)

Cool

Mai | 33 comments Marked (House of Night, #1) by P.C. Cast

I read this, like, a year ago when my book judgement was bad and I rated this 5 stars and thought it was the best book ever. Now, that I read negative reviews and they highlighted the bad points of this book, I realize that it's a bad book. I don't hate it but I hate ALOT of things about it. Like, Zoey. The most annoying crappy slutty character of ALL TIME!!


message 34: by Emma (new)

Emma Anything Gossip Girl. All of The Clique's.

Trash. They're all garbage. Beacause really, no one acts like that. Not even in an alternant universe.

Cheyenne (cheylaraine) | 1882 comments Mod
I agree with you that the clique books are trash, yet they were books that got me into reading when I was younger, so I can't say I hated them.


message 36: by Mai (new)

Mai | 33 comments I love Gossip Girl but the characters are quite annoying:P But some spoiled brats act like they do.


message 37: by Emma (new)

Emma I guess I just live in my own little world where nobody acts like that...


message 38: by Gayatri (new)

Gayatri | 16 comments Insomnia by Stephen King

After hearing so much about Stephen King's books I picked this one to read. 700 pages of confusion. I completed reading the book just to see how much further I could go through the torture. Stephen King's books. Never Again!


message 39: by Emma (new)

Emma Too scary for me!


message 40: by Pirl (new)

Pirl (pirlismyname) Anything I rated under 3 stars(not including for most of them) is a Never Again. But one that I REALLY hated is Dark Heart Forever (Dark Heart, #1) by Lee Monroe
It was simply HORRIBLE.

I'm reading this book, the Dangerous Days of Daniel X, and I can already tell I am NEVER going to read it again.

First of all, the main character has WAY too many powers. Shapeshifting, mind control, physic powers, uber strength, he's a freaking genius, AND he can arrange molecules with his mind. I understand just one. Two is a bit of overkill. But SIX?! What's the challenge, where's the interest? Plus, it is really poorly written. The chapters are short, predictable, and uninteresting.

What happened James Patterson? I loved your Maximum Ride books! What happened?!

Cheyenne (cheylaraine) | 1882 comments Mod
I hate it when authors write something completely awful! It leaves a sour taste in the mouth for sure...


message 43: by Emma (new)

Emma Hatchet. I HATE that book, there is no reason teacher's should read it to students, it's just ulck!


message 44: by the sound of Autumn, Oh dear. (new)

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
I agree, it was pretty boring.


message 45: by [deleted user] (new)

Ummm... Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie


message 46: by Lisa (new)

Lisa Stimson | 8 comments White Noise. Read it first in high school then tried reading it again in college. It just has no memorable characters and just would not hold my attention for long. :(


message 47: by the sound of Autumn, Oh dear. (new)

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
Oh, I hate weak characters, it's just severely annoying and makes the book a waste of time.

E.J. (ejschoenborn) | 379 comments "Shatter Me"
"Into the Shadows" by Karly Kirkpatrick...
God, this book was just AWFUL!
The premise at the back, "She feels like she's being watched when she gets the messages in her tater tots."
AGGHHHH!


message 49: by the sound of Autumn, Oh dear. (new)

the sound of Autumn | 3132 comments Mod
Really? It's on my to-read list. Why is it so awful? I'd just like to know so I can decide whether I really want to try it or not.
