Top 10 Most Boring Books of All Time
I told my best friend this book was great and gave it to her so I could stop reading it!
Hahaaa. I gave this book to my Science teacher to study the source of boringness. Lol. I got a detention for that...
This book is so horrible I threw it in the toilet
What did I just read?
I understand that we need to read this book in school because it provides us some evidence of how American literature has changed throughout the years. I know as well that we need to read this book in school to know what the moral/theme of the story is. But for the love of god, this book is just boring. The beginning is slow and boring that it made my mind go to a blank. I couldn't even finish the first chapter without being easily distracted by boredom. As for the middle and the end of it, I honestly can't remember anything. I read it for school and once I aced the final test for this book, I immediately forgot everything about it. Why can't schools just allow students to read whatever book they want to for English class. This will provide diversity among the class and allows the teacher(s) to understand what genre every student likes and what sets each student apart. Also, a bonus, if schools allowed the students to pick whichever book they wanted to read for English class, students ...more
I know I'm not the only one who thinks it isn't boring. No, there aren't a lot of love scenes, or car crashes, or superheroes. Just some terrific lessons to be learned about treating all people as you would like to be treated.
We had to read this book for 8th grade Literature and it was boring as hell. I understand this was to introduce us to American Literature, but this was tedious and hard to read!
I had to read it in year 9, and everyone found it boring. We also had to do a test on it.
These books are a disgrace to dystopian fiction. I LOVE LOVE LOVE dystopia books, they are my all time favorite genera, but these books were so bland and boring and unnecessarily complicated, I couldn't even finish the first book. Instead I went back and read Hunger Games for the fifteenth time. I could even plow through Children of Eden, which is a little too quick paced and doesn't have a lot of character development and Joey doesn't let the story build up enough to the tragic parts. But I could not get myself to read these. Just boring. anyway, yeah, it was really disappointing.
Ignored the winning action packed formula of the first two and turned it into a massive exposition heap. A dissapointment to all Divergent fans with actual working brains.
Loved Divergent, got a bit boring during Insurgwnt, and completely lost me at Allegiant. Couldn't even finish the book, very disappointing
Don't think this belongs here it is a reference book it would be like saying a book of important historical dates is boring or the phone book is boring, or the yellow pages is boring there there for quick reference not to sit down and read through
I'm not so sure that you can classify this as boring because it's just one of those books that sits on you shelf until you need a definition. It's not a novel, so you obviously would not read it front to back.
It's boring for any person to regularly sit down and read, but it seriously helped my vocabulary, and it is useful to practically any person alive!
I had to read this for school, but I couldn't get into it. I have pretty bad ADHD, so I just made my mom read it for me. We didn't even have to take notes, so I got away with it. And when my mom was reading it to me, I didn't even pay attention
I'm sorry, but people are saying things like" It was horribly written" and " there's no plot". Guys, this is not a novel. This isn't a story made up for entertainment. This is a piece of religious scripture, and I hate it when people put it on " worst books" lists. This is just plain insulting, even though I'm not catholic. I'm actually Mormon, so we don't really focus on the bible as much, but please don't put religious books on these lists. I know I would be upset if The Book of Mormon was on a list like this, so please be respectful. please no hate, I'm just trying to protect and respect people's beliefs.
This sounds SO cool.
I'm so gonna fall asleep if I read this.
This just sounds painfully awful.
Painful to read
This book was a garbage reading with absolutely no plot development and it was boring beyond any stretch of the imagination (no pun intended). I came close on several separate occasions on flushing this book down the toilet. Please do not read this book.
Oh my god this book is a plague. I swear nobody should ever have to experience the horror of having to read this book.Stay away it is a place of boredom where people have no taste.If anyone likes this book no offense but I personally think you are probably from another planet.
This is a good book, obviously no book is going to be entertaining to everyone and part of that is relatability and the major problem with this book is that it deals a lot with slavery which most people just can't relate to in this day and age, not saying there isn't slavery now, because obviously there is it just isn't main stream anymore
Comment below me, I am sorry, but this book is boring to the point of just cussing and throwing it out so you can take the nap you wanted to take when you started the book. Look, this book is a classic but I almost could not read it it's really THAT boring
I can't stand this book. My mommmade me read it in 4th Grade and it took me like 3 months because I couldn't handle reading this book. It was just so BORING!
What? This is one of the greatest books of all time, not one of the most boring!
The Newcomers
All it talks about is school a mean teacher and how pens should be called frindles.
You're kidding right. Have you gotten say, halfway through?! I'd say its one of the best books I've read my entire life!
As a matter of fact, this book is worth stealing.
I accidentally voted for it, but I wanted to say that this shouldn't be on the list.
I have a very short attention span, I can not sit still, and I get bored so easily, but I read this book in, like 2 days. And I didn't get bored.
No need to read this book, as it's EXTREMELY boring and the title says the whole thing.
This book has 29 words in the title it already got boring!
The title says it all so why waste a book on it lol
I Think The Tittle Sums Up The Whole Thing
Herman Melville got drunk and started rambling about everything he knows about whaling. Then he added a little plot at the start and at the end and called it a book.
I haven't read the book myself, but my mom said she had to read it in high school and said the first 19 chapters are about blubber. The 20th chapter had no 👎 plot... I don't think I will be reading this anytime soon,
ARE YOU KIDDING ME! THIS IS THE GREATEST BOOK OF ALL TIME! It really hits home for me because my dad has cancer. And this book depicts emotions perfectly. It's really heartbreaking to see this book on the list.
John Green is the worst author alive today. Don't let his comments (the ones defending the book) blind you to the truth.
What the heck? This book is awesome!
God, I just couldn't do this book!
This book is most certainly NOT boring! It is a classic, you uneducated fool! It happens to be my all time favourite. Why put beautiful classic books up here?! I haven't seen one of those stupid books like 'Barry Looser' or Tom Gates?! You should read a little shakespeare and become a little smarter!
Nobody cares about this super whiny kid. Holden please pay attention in school and don't do drugs!
One swear word, wow
I like this book
Just sounds like one of those books I wouldn't wanna read unless I had to
I had to read this for a group project and it was boring and didnt make any sense.
