Books you didn't like

Have you read [and maybe not finished] a book that is, in your opinion, not really in your 'good books' list?

We're not going to make fun of the books, but rather, talk about how it didn't appeal to us [the title...the first few chapters...]

So...anyone want to start?

I really disliked a book we had to read last year in my english class... It was called "Bird Girl and the man who followed the sun" and although it was well written, I just couldn't get into it.
The plot just seemed a little poor, and the whole thing was somewhat unrealistic. It skipped time too much, so you never quite knew where you were. And the story wasn't connected well...

Has anyone here read a book called 'Framed'? I started reading it...but got bored halfway through. The plot didn't start right away...In fact, I finished 1/3 of the book, and it still wasn't showing :/

Naw, never even heard of it... :S

Wait...The author is Frank Cottrell Boyce. You can read it and tell me what you think...maybe we have different opinions about it.

Maybe we should read books that didn't interest the other members and see what others think of it.

Who's the author of "Bird Girl and the Man who Followed the Sun"? Maybe it's in our library :/

It's by Velma Wallis...
And yeah, it would be cool to read books that we may have different view points on! Sorta like a book club!
