Mari Therese Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 [quote name='IcePrincessKRS' post='1733231' date='Dec 21 2008, 05:35 PM']Where the Red Fern Grows... I hated that book. It's probably the only book I can say that I truly hated that I read cover to cover. Normally if I dislike a book that badly I won't finish it (and I hate not finishing books).[/quote] I remember that book, we were forced to read it in grade 6. We also watched the movie which was even worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmom Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Well, it's certainly not my favorite book, but I never knew anyone who hated it. Was it assigned reading? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scardella Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 (edited) Great Expectations. I thought i was really going to like it, but it was a real letdown. (not really. I never even read it.) Edited December 22, 2008 by scardella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archaeology cat Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 [quote name='dominicansoul' post='1733425' date='Dec 22 2008, 01:13 AM']mein kampf by adolf hitler[/quote] Yeah, I was going to say my text book for my class on the history of the Great Depression, but yeah, Mein Kampf is definitely worse. Others on the list: Kafka's [i]Metamorphosis[/i], [i]Grapes of Wrath[/i], anything by Hemingway (though maybe I just don't like him because I didn't like my teacher that year; same could be true about [i]The Grapes of Wrath[/i]).
