I would have to say "Their Eyes Were Watching God." Seriously, who cares?
-

-
The Red Badge of Courage....OMG! What a worthless, boring, piece of crap book.
-
Social studies books - Every class I ever had growing up.
-
A book called "let's go play at the adams'". was a horrid book featuring a very explicit torture of a childminder. I like gore but this was not for me.

Lockie Leonard Bah, studied to death at school
-
I bet loads of people disagree, but I have to say Catcher In The Rye. It was so boring, and I just couldn't get interested in it t all. It didn't seem to have much substance and I had to force myself to finish it. And I'm not the sort of person who only reads comics.
-
God, Moby Dick was possibly the most pointless load of drivel ive ever scanned the back cover of.
-
The Great Gatsby, not only my least favorite, but the only one I have ever hated.
-
the odessy
-
My literature book. Thank God that class is finaly over.
-
Anything by Charles Dickens- I've tried and I've tried but I just don't get it. I think its the way he can take thirty odd pages to say what any other writer could say in about three words. Plus a lot of the stories are very very similar its terrible but I just feel like screaming "OK OK so everybody's poor and schoolmasters are sadists! We get it!"

I didn't really enjoy Farenheit 451.. I love science fiction books, but i didn't like how the story line went.. also the beginning was sort of dragging.. I had a hard time just picking up the book after i had stopped reading it.
-
Any book by Dr.Laura.
-
I never liked my history book in school.
-
I actually didn't like Hamlet.

The first book in that young Merlin series by T. A. Barron. The cadence of the whole thing seemed to be: "As he climbed up the tree, he could see farther and farther. When he reached the top, he was happy. While he sat in the branches, he craved a grilled cheese sandwich. As he climbed down the tree, he slipped and broke his neck." I think (and hope) that was a bit of an exaggeration. It was also pretty boring. I didn't make it halfway through the book. I also hated The Portrait of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. I really don't care about some guy's pouty, red lips. It didn't get interesting until the last few pages, but I was fed up with Dorian by then.
-
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce. The stream of consciousness style of writing is like a cheese grater on my nerves.
-
"From Baghdad With Love" -- I couldn't stand reading about the horrors perpetrated towards dogs there -- I am sure the ending might have been a good one (the soldier beat the odds to get a puppy sent to the states). I only read about half of it and I skipped some sections too. Before you think I don't care about what happens to our soldiers, that wasn't the question)
-
Anything on Tax Law can instantly cure me of insomnia.

Ok, I think it would have to be.."Our Town", by Thornton Wilder..I know it's supposedly a "great American play", but I found it to be pointless, boring, and obnoxious..I don't care if it won the Pulitzer Prize..It still just about killed me reading it..
-
A wrinkle in time, I remember trying to get through that one in english. I usually got good grades, but that one I just said the heck with it and failed the tests on it miserably.
-
Anything by Ann Coulter. The only thing I've ever learned from one of her books is that the author is an utter idiot who apparently failed history, civics, and logic. (I find that fascinating, as she holds a JD.)
-
War of the Worlds. I gave up after the seventh chapter it was very boring. Also, The Pope’s Rhinoceros. I found that I could not get past the battle scenes. Such things do not usually bother me, but I found that images stayed in my visual memory for many months.
-
Julius Caesar or anything by William Shakespeare that we have to read in school
-
Uncle Vanya or the Cherry Orchard in fact most Russian Literature I find it extremely wearing and hard to concentrate when an Author or writer of any kind uses two hundred words where 20 will be perfectly adequate. You may call me Low brow but I spent too many years being forced to read that stuff and anything by Thomas Hardy just about sends me to sleep contemplating the cover
-
The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosiński. It's absolutely horrifying and you should never read it. That being said, the reason I hate it is because of how gruesome it is. Otherwise, it's a great novel. And...you can't put it down.
-
"The August Coup" by Mikhail Gorbachev. Believe it or not, he found some way to make this turning point in history sound boring. The man can not write. He has done some good work with the environment though since he left office.
-
Jaberwocky by Lewis Carroll. Hard following a stoned writer when you are not.
-
