Really? I never read it, but it seemed like it would be a good book.

To be fair, I probably only hated it because it was shoved down my throat in english class. I've considered re-reading it to see if I was just being a stubborn, 13-year-old twat but I haven't been able to muster the courage.

^^^^^^^Meh Why bother.

I hated Wicked. Well I didn't hate it, but I found it grossly overrated. To be fair the books I hate are usually the ones I give up on pretty early on.

Worst. Book. Ever!

God I hated it so much. I bought it under the pretense that it was written by a young author and it was his own critique on his generation, but no it's written by so old douche bag who pines for "the good ol' days". I lent it to my friend and after reading a few pages he asked me if it was OK for him to write in it, I said it was and a few months after I got it back almost every page had a counter-argument or totally destroyed whatever credibility the author had, reading his comments was far more entertaining then the book.

I like Stephen King, but his more recent horror stuff has been pretty lame.

Anyway. I dunno, probably The Voice of the Night by Dean Koontz.

I thought Fahrenheit 451 was pretty bad overall. I also gave up on Iain Banks' Espedaire Street, probably the dullest thing I've read thus far.

I don't really read that much...:\
