Worst book you've ever read
I hated that the Catcher in the Rye had basically no point other then Hey, I'm Holden Caulfield, relate to me. But it was really well-written and I didn't get exhasperated halfway through like I do with most "classic" novels.
For my birthday last year, my mom bought me the Twilight series. I read half of the first one and it was awful. Bella is seriously the blandest character in modern literature, you could not make a more blatant Mary Sue if you tried. |

If you treat it as a fictional book, the Bible is actually pretty entertaining.
Oh and to answer the question: Twilight.

I thought The Pearl was decent.

"The Grapes of Wrath" by John Steinbeck. I have given it a few tries but I could never really get past that first sentence
Actually I've only ever gotten about a quarter of the way through before having to put it down. I found it really, really dry. |
