Booking Through Thursday – Hated
Posted on January 23, 2014 in Books
If there was one book you could make sure nobody ever read again … what would it be? And why? – BTT
I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t “hate” many things. There are many books I find boring, but few that I truly hate or dislike. Here’s a run down of books that are just not for me:
- Wuthering Heights – The only classic on the list. I like Anne and Jane, but this work by Emily grated on me no end. Ugh. Hated the characters so much. I don’t find Heathcliff attractive and wish he and Cathy fell off the moor.
- Fifty Shades of Grey series – Those precious hours of my life that I will never get back.
- Most of the Twilight series – I don’t enjoy the message this sends at all. Similar to the above
- Mists of Avalon – A book I tried to read and finish three times, but I still could not do it. Blah. I know some people like this a lot, but I don’t like Marion Zimmer Bradley’s style at all.
What are some books that you didn’t like?
Hmm. Good question. I’m drawing a complete blank at the moment although I know there have been some. Perhaps at one time, I found Henry James’s books pretty dry, boring and unreadable but that was a long time ago when I was young. Maybe they’re less of a drag now? Who knows?!

Hi Susan! I’ve only read one James and yeah, the ending was a bit of a drag. It’s good that you don’t have a list of books. I regret the ones I read above. Have a good week!
