Overrated Books that you Hate
Is there any books out there that you absolutely hate even though practically everyone else likes that book? Instructions Manuals, Magazines, and Non Fictional literature don't count. Only mention fictional books.
Also let's not mention books about religeons like the Greek Gods and Buddhism. We don't want to offend anyone by putting down their religeon.
Anything by this man.
I have an intense and unyielding hatred of the Da Vinci Code. HATE.
It's the only book I've ever physically assaulted.
Scarlet Letter. It's not very good, yet it's a classic piece of literature.
I'm not sure if great expectations counts as overrated, but man.

Books suck.

Books are the base of the current forms of mostly all televised entertainment nowadays, but I say that there really isn't any because there are so few people nowadays that read and the only ones that get a great deal of attention are the Harry Potter series and the Da Vinci Code about one or two years ago, books just aren't quite as popular.
I think that Catch-22 was a best seller, but I couldn't hardly read any of it, the story seemed exploded with everyone just calling each other crazy and stuff. i didn't really get it, but I suppose that's on my fault.

That's absolutely blasphemy, Major Major.
The only two highly regarded books that I can ever remember getting the "holy crap why am I reading this" vibe off are The Fellowship of the Ring and A Clockwork Orange. Not that they were necessarily awful mind you, just really not worth the effort.

Never been a fan of Dickens. He has some fantastic passages, but overall, I've never felt his stuff to add up to anything special.
Heart Of Darkness.
Every Literature college professor would go all crazy at the mention of this book,but I found it completely,utterly,and abysmally boring.
