I just couldn't finish it!
If you are a reader, at times you will come across a book that you feel is so horrible that you cannot finish reading it. We are all different, so I expect what one person considers the worst may be on another person's favorite list. Without any arguments or name calling please tell us what you believe to be the worst book you have ever tried to read but couldn't finish. It could be a list of books if you wish. Please explain why you feel this way.
For me it would have to be Lisa W. Cantrell's The Manse. It felt completely generic to me as if she just through a bunch of cliche characters into that old overused haunted house story. |

Well, I did finish it, but the worst book I've read in quite some time was RL Stine's Superstitions. It's supposed to be for an adult audience, but it was just terrible. Cliche plot, wooden characters, stilted dialogue... I don't know why I even finished it.

Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, started reading it because I´m obsessed with the character of Miss Havisham, but just..no.
One of these days though..

Sorry, just Peter. I own it but haven't read it yet and now I'm a bit apprehensive but I know that Straub can be difficult to read at times. A Dark Matter was excellent though, at least I thought so.

A Dark Matter I found enjoyable, although I am not sure if I could call it Horror. Last edited by Rotting Zombie; 01-10-2012 at 05:17 PM. |
