A bad book, for me, is one I can't bring myself to continue reading.
It's similar to my taste in movies, I am quite easy to please, yet I believe in myself being able to differentiate between really good, okay, bad, and horrible.
So, the most horrible books I read since I got started with ebooks (about 5 years ago) were
- War Of The Worlds - H.G. Wells (tedious)
- Desert Heat (Joanna Brady Series) - J.A. Jance (totally not interesting to read about this Ms. Brady)
- Something Venice (the first one) - Donna Leon (the first chapter pretty much sealed it for me)
- The Perfume - Patrick Süsskind (started out good, then it became tediuous)
- The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde (I tried. I really tried. But I had to give up)
- Lambs Hide, Tigers Seek - Steve Jordan (Just kidding I loved it!!)
And before I get
my head crushed against a stone by Mr. Lobolover I'd like to add:
Those are
my worst books I've ever read. Except #6, of course!
