Ugh, this. 1,000x this. I haven't read Piers Anthony since junior high, but I remember finding Pornucopia awful even then.
As for a few books I really did not like:
1. A Catcher in the Rye - I read this in high school and found the main character, Holden to be unlikable, his observations simplistic and dull and the righting style uninteresting.
2. The Dark Tower - After thousands of pages of build-up, this book (the last book in the Dark Tower series) was a huge let down. The main enemy (who turns out to be your Alzheimer afflicted grandfather) is defeated with a deus ex machina too stupid to spoil, Stephen King breaks the flow of the story by writing a page or two near the end as to why the reader will be disappointed by the ending and the ending is no ending at all.
