It's sad, yet inevitable - we're all going to to have books we detest. So in an effort for you to know my reading tastes better I posted my favourite books last week and now a return with my least favourite books. Unlike the previous list, this is in order.
1. Romeo and Juliet - William Shakespeare
Loved the writing. Hated the characters, and I found myself gleefully happy when Romeo died.
2. Ash - James Herbert
I think the Goodreads review is enough justification - Ash
While the first two were mostly 'not my cup of tea', now we're moving onto the books I have wept over because I expected so much more.
3. The Scorch Trials - James Dashner
I loved the 'Maze Runner', but this book is full of bad writing and no sense of direction to as where the plot was going. I don't think I even finished it.
4. Across The Nightingale Floor - Lian Hearn
This has a fantastic premise, but my blurb gave away 3/4 of the book. Hense I found it dull with characters I couldn't relate too.
5. Catcher in The Rye - J.D. Salinger
I know. This is some people's favourite book ever. I had so much enthusiam to start reading this, I accidently bought two copies *doh*! I detested Holden, and found him very unrelatable. I assume that this book is either you love it...or you hate it.
What am I reading??? Yup, same book from last week.... 'Parades' End' - Ford Madox Ford
Have a lovely week readers! What are the books you hated?
