We often post about good books to read so lets change it up. What is the worst book you have ever read? It is an easy choice for me "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" is by far the worst. I like sci-fi and fantasy and it is considered a classic. I kept thinking it would get better but it never did. When I finished it I had my wife read it to see what she thought and for once we agreed 100%. The worst book ever.

You and I have very different tastes. Douglas Adams is one of my favorite authors and I loved all the books in the Hitchhiker series.
One of the worst books I’ve ever read was The Jungle by Upton Sinclair. It was very depressing.
Eh...wot?

I like to read military memoirs from both sides of conflicts. I think it was Sniper on the eastern front, from the German perspective was very good. Red Sniper on the Eastern front was terrible. Written while the Cold War was still strong so the KGB would’ve edited it before letting it go public……lol. Full of commie gov BS.

If a book is bad, why finish it? Lol The worst for me was a book I was forced to read in the fifth grade. My grade for the semester depended on a report I was required to give on the book. I don't remember the title, but it was very long and very boring.

Can't think of one off the top of my head but I occasionally will start a book and decide it's not keeping my interest and start a new one. Those seem to be few and far between.
