A book/books you hate even tho everyone seems to love it?

I can't stand Pride and Prejudice. I've had all kinds of reactions from shock to 'you just don't understand it". But I do understand it. I understand that it's overrated and not even her best work by a long shot.

So what books do people seem to worship that you can't stand or just didn't like?

The "50 shades" triology or whatever it is.

It's horribly written, and whoever wrote it clearly doesn't know a single thing about BDSM other than "ooh hurty". Haaate those.

@NorthernRoses Had to read the first one for a book club. We could all tell the one whose turn it was to pick because she's the only one that liked it.

@EllaDisenchanted Oh man, that's the [i]worst.[/i] Did you toughen through it, or did you decide it wasn't worth it?

@NorthernRoses yes I thought those were barely worth reading , much less making movies about .

@NorthernRoses It was the book that finally convinced me, after all these years, that it's ok to not finish a book I don't enjoy and it's no worth the guilt over admitting you hate it.
