Top Ten Worst Books Ever

This is the opposite of the BEST books ever written. Just ask yourself what was that one book that stood out from the rest? The one that you could just not possibly finish reading?

The Top Ten

Twilight - Stephenie Meyer

I originally tried the first book out of curiosity. I thought to myself, "Eh, it's okay. It's kind of cheesy and corny, but it's original at least, and the details in the writing are pretty good." So, I read the next two books. The second was also okay, though in all three books, the main character was incredibly stupid and overly dependent on her boyfriend.
By the third book...ugh. The main character, Bella Swan, is the opposite of a strong female protagonist. She even says her boyfriend is like a drug to her, and when everyone she cares about is in danger, she just sits in the corner watching. The book implies that women shouldn't make their own decisions in relationships. All of their choices should be made for them. The romance isn't even sweet. Her boyfriend is overprotective and manipulative. Clearly, Bella paid no attention in health class because their relationship is the definition of abusive.
It got so bad that I didn't even read the fourth book. So yeah, I would avoid this series. I wasted fifteen dollars buying the books on my Kindle, and it's just a waste of time.
Fifty Shades of Grey - E. L. James

This should be number one. Twilight may be horrible, but Fifty Shades is horrible fanfiction based on it. The only thing this book is good for is a round of laughs at the atrocious writing. The fact that it's mostly sex is not the main problem. The issue is the poor quality of the sex scenes. I fail to see how anyone can be aroused by this.

I don't like Twilight very much, but I don't think it deserves to be placed higher than this book. Fifty Shades of Grey should take its place. It's really just the same characters from Twilight with different names and a lot of sex. Also, the relationship the characters have is pretty much tied together because of sex, abuse, and the cringey writing that binds them.
Mein Kampf - Adolf Hitler

I like the Koran's teachings, despite the fact that I am atheistic, and I like To Kill a Mockingbird, but this book was written by some crazy guy with a toothbrush mustache who ruthlessly slaughtered millions of Jews, Blacks, Roma, Communists, and Slavic peoples, among others. Hitler was probably mentally ill, and without treatment, he went nuts. Sorry if I got into a left-wing rant there.

If you even remotely attempt to defend this book, you CONCERN me. What actually is wrong with you people? The only normal reason I could see someone liking this is if you are either extremely interested in Hitler's psychological state of mind.
Justin Bieber: First Step 2 Forever - Justin Bieber

This book sucks. It's by Justin Bieber. Who cares about his story? What about mine? Or yours? Shut up, Bieber, you weirdo. And all your fangirls? *gag*

What kind of idiot doesn't know how to spell to? Justin Bieber, of course!

To say this book sucks is a compliment.
New Moon - Stephenie Meyer

I really wish I Am David was on this list, but oh well, this book sucks just as much. As some of you may know, I decided to read the whole Twilight series to ensure my dislike for it wasn't based on assumptions. I just finished New Moon, and from what I've read so far, the whole series is awful.
I'll post a review on the list with further analysis on why I dislike it so much.

Oh god! The second Twilight book, and it gets even worse. Now Bella hooks up with a whiny, ugly werewolf who's just as bad as Edward. Don't read this. Bella is boring and the worst representation of humanity.
Also, Edward is a disgrace to vampires, and Jacob is just as bad. Screw Twilight, it's trash!
Emily the Strange - Rob Reger

Get this off of here. This series of comics and graphic novels is really surreal and gothic (it gives of a Tim Burton vibe) but it is great.

She reminds me of Sabrina from pokemon.
To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee

This book is horrible. I just started reading it and I can't even get past chapter 6 without double-taking and asking myself what is going on. This book is hard as hell to even understand, which makes it super boring. Maybe it's a masterpiece for those who actually understand what this Harper lady is talking about, but I don't.
I'm failing English right now because this book is super confusing and just doesn't make sense. If anything, this book should be #3 on the list at least.

Dude, the plot of this book is that a black guy is accused of raping a white woman. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, knows it wasn't him, but he still gets shot 14 times. What kind of bull is that? That is literally how the book ends! Worst justice system ever. Worst book ever.
However, I liked most of the characters, and they were very well developed.
Middle School: My Brother Is a Big, Fat Liar - James Patterson

Ugh. I hate kids' books now, especially this disgrace. I don't understand why the girl in this book thinks she's so great, because she's NOT.
The illustrations are okay, but if this is meant for children, please stop making books full of toilet humor, exaggerated drama, and weak plots. Read a good book with solid characters and real humor instead.

All you see now in children's books are stories about kids in middle school. All of them (except the first six Wimpy Kid books) are pathetic. They have the same conclusions, storylines, and stereotypes.
Middle school is nothing like what these authors make it out to be.
Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star - Rachel Renée Russell

Ahem. Let me get this out first and then start shooting me. This book sucks. Yep. It sucks deep.
First of all, the characters are so stereotypical. We have the mean girl whose only concern is to beat Nikki, we have the athletic types, the nerdy types, and then we have that supposed dork. Two things: the fact that she calls herself a dork is not only cliche but also spastic, because dorks are not at all like that, and she proves in the book that she only cares about boys and stuff (totally girly and anti-feministic). Moreover, degrading herself by calling herself a dork while she definitely isn't makes her look dishonest and a prat.
Another bad thing about the book is that it encourages girls to care about material possessions, their appearance, and boys. The end. Nothing else. Like, what. That is a very bad message. Nikki is also a Mary Sue, like a very big Mary Sue. I hate her shallowness sometimes.
If you want to read a good funny book, pick up Diary of a Wimpy Kid. It's perfect in every way. Just don't read Dork Diaries. It's over-dramatic and bad culture at its best.
Fifty Shades Darker - E. L. James

Fifty shades...darker. How can you get darker than fifty shades of grey? Whoever reads this book is a pervert...

This book should be seen as a cry for help by the author.

How is this below the Holy Book?

The Newcomers

?
Big Dumb Eyes: Stories from a Simpler Mind - Nate Bargatze
?
This Is Why I Hate You - Greg Jackson

The Contenders

The Bible

You have got to be kidding me! This book survived the top ten worst list? It should have been 2nd or 3rd at least. It's badly written, has no interesting or consistent plot or structure. Many of the teachings are outdated, such as stoning, slavery, and violence against women.
It advocates incest between siblings by preaching things like Adam and Eve's children having intercourse with each other to continue the human race. Then, it goes on to advocate incest between daughters and their father by telling the story of Lot's daughters sleeping with their father.
Overall, this is a waste of time and delusional in its approach, considering it tries to make people believe in a supernatural super daddy.
William Shakespeare's Star Wars - Ian Doescher

This book would not work. Darth Vader as SHAKESPHERE?!?
I have not read it, but this must be an English or Social Studies teacher's attempt to make history interesting.

I've read this, actually, and to be honest, it's really good. The prose is well-done, and it gives a little more insight into the characters.

This book is pretty good, to be honest. Like, it's not like Douglas Adams levels of humor, but it works. It's creative, fun, and a good read.
Fifty Shades Freed - E. L. James

Fifty Shades of Gray has to be the worst franchise of all time, heck it makes Bubsy, Norm of the North, and EVEN Twilight look like masterpieces.

It makes me sad that there is a sequel, let a lone a third installment in this joke of a franchise.

There is a third book? Aw hell no
World's Wackiest Riddle Book
Babymouse 3: Beach Babe - Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm

I can't believe kids are throwing away their Harry Potter books to read this. I tried reading Babymouse and fell asleep - and I never, ever fall asleep while reading books! That really says something.

Very poor drawings, a stupid storyline, and dumb characters. Do I need to say more?

Man, those guys must hate cats! Get that little creep, Felicia, get her!
Allegiant - Veronica Roth

I literally can not imagine how anybody answered "Okay, what is the best way to finish this trilogy" with this. The things that happened in this book are so clearly NOT the things that should have happened in this book.
I don't know if this is the worst book, but it just makes you pause for a second and go... Are you kidding me? This is what you decided to go with. This."
In that respect it is very similar to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Think about it this way she was weak from the death serum, so she couldn't fight back, and she was former Abnegation, and Four was always saying don't let your Abnegation get you killed and it ends up happening she died because she saved Caleb from going in and dying she was being selfless and brave by going in. Abnegation and Dauntless.
Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life - Rachel Renée Russell

I knew a girl who was obsessed with this series, and was constantly egging me on to try it out. At my school, for Elementary, we have this event called Book Parade, and she was Nikki and another girl was Mackenzie- and they tried to pay a boy with two hundred class dollars (we had this thing called class economy that we did in class) to be...what's his name...Brendan. The actual book kind of sucks. Nikki isn't what you would call the best role model for girls. She's obsessed with this one stupid guy called Brendan, and won't think about anything but him. She whines about everything, and is so annoying. I didn't read the whole thing, but I read enough.
Sex and the City - Candace Bushnell

After checking Goodreads, I've learned this book is a decent time killer but disappointing if you're a fan of the show.
I've never been a fan of the show, but I might check this out of morbid curiosity. I want to see why this is at #16, or if people just don't like the focus on sex.

This book wasn't too bad. I don't understand why people criticize it when they haven't even read it. Oh well.
It wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible either.

This garbage T.V. show is the epitome of single middle-aged "wine moms" who wish they were still in their 20s.
The Adventures of Captain Underpants - Dav Pilkey

I know it's on here for the fact that it's based on gross out humor, but this first novel was pretty tame when it came to all that, and while I love this book this is easily the weakest in the series which is actually a good thing as It shows just how much better these books got. I love the stupidity and it's an American classic, which even got the attention of Jeff Kinney as he references it in one of his Wimpy Kid novels. Solid book.

The Adventures of Captain Underpants: Ok
The attack of the talking toilets: Kool
The invasion of the incredibly, naughty cafeteria ladies: Awesome
The perilous plot of Professor Poopypants: Lol troll funny
The wrath of the wicked wedgie woman: Very good
The bionic booger boy series: Part 1 was okay, part 2 is awesome
The terrifying return of Tippy Tinkletrousers: The best one, but too long
The tyrannical retaliation of the Turbo Toilet 2000: Great
I did not mention all of the books, these are the ones I have.
67 Reasons Why Cats Are Better Than Dogs - Jack Shepherd

NO. Cats are amazing. My best friend Stuart's favourite animals are cats. They aren't overrated (well they are a little bit). DOGS are overrated. But I'd say they're equal, I hate that dogs are number 1 on best animals and cats are 2. They should both be number 1. Both are amazing. They both have negatives (cats treat us like slaves and most dogs are just slobbering creatures that force you to play with them). But hey, look, cats are cute and furry and dogs do interesting things. Let's just say they're equal, okay? - astroshark

Let's let cats and dogs settle this rivalry themselves, shall we? I mean, since when was it a human's place to decide which animal I should better? It's not like we OWN the species of animals themselves.
The Emoji Movie: A Junior Novelization

Once I saw this in target so I pointed to it and told my siblings
"Look! Your favourite book! "
Not! This book stupid.

I did not bother reading this, just voting because of sheer hatred for the movie.

Yes, THIS book exists. I'm not joking. I saw it in Walmart a month ago.
The Qur'an

Not liking the Koran is not racist, as it is followed by people of all races. Arguably, it is a very low-quality book and very nasty in its description of how God will torture people who do not accept it, and in what situations men should strike their wives.
Those who are outraged have to accept that people who were not brought up in Islam, and were not told how great it was from an early age, often find it a diabolical collection of sermons. The fact that they think this does not matter very much. The debate will never be about what is reasonable or true. Everyone, calm down.

A book based on early middle east beliefs that is still justified as good. Some cultures back then were destroyed by this barbaric belief system. Islam spread by violence and came from the oppressive Arabian peninsula. Arabs should have evolved but calling this the one truth stopped them. It's a relic of a barbaric era that doesn't deserve the respect people claim. Few developed societies with such influence have such barbaric traditions as law, because we evolved. This and Islam haven't.
Caillou: Potty Time - Joceline Sanschagrin

Cailou gives me a seething, uncontrollable rage that no other piece of media can give me.

I don't want to read this book because I've always hated Caillou.

Caillou's a jerk, but there are WORSE things to come out of the Caillou franchise,such as, you know, the show.
A Tale Dark and Grim - Adam Gidwitz

What? This book was amazing! Even though it was filled with blood and gore, it was still really good because it really had a twist on fairy tales. It made adults and teens want to pick up this book and read it, not like some stupid old tale about Cinderella or The Beauty and the Beast. Adam Gidwitz really took into consideration the actual tales, and tried to make them more interesting. This is a risk knowing that many people might not like the blood, but it had a really meaningful touch if you think about it. The second book was bae though. Was very touching and meant a lot.

No, no, NO!
This was a fabulous book. Its dark humour is brilliant, and it is astonishingly entertaining. This was a wonderful book, and it shouldn't be here. It doesn't deserve this terrible fate.
Upvote 50 Shades of Grey. Upvote Twilight. Just don't say that this book is horrible just because it doesn't have your sense of humour considered.
Some of us like hearing about people who die from laughter.
Emily the Strange: The Boring Issue - Rob Reger

For a kid constantly called "edgy," "emo" and "creepy" by her classmates...I'll just say this is waaay below the line.
Kid needs some help.

What's up with this creepy looking kid? Does she need to see a therapist or something?
