Robinson Crusoe.I'm never doing that again,and two books that realy let me down were The Amber Spyglass by Phillip Pullman and Weetzie Bat by Fransceca Lee Block.

I tried to read a phillip pullman book, but it was so boring... and i once read a book called 'the highway man' or something, and i thought that it sucked too.

The Hobbit is definetly the most boringest book in the whole entire world.

I've never tried reading the hobbit.. im going to start reading shakespears soon arrgh.. from you guys point of view it sounds really boring...

Great expectation is really hard to read.. i mean its okish but i get really confused.. then i lost my page so i stopped lol..

Great Expectations was definitely one of my least favorite books I've ever read... or at least pretended to read. heh. I couldn't get through a chapter of that one before I would space out or get bored. It was just that everything was just a detailed description. It was really hard to follow the actual story line because nothing made sense until the last chapters.

I'm a Shakespeare fan...I haven't read all his plays, I've read most of his sonnets though...but the ones I have read I've liked but trust me I didn't feel that way when I was studying it in highschool.

A boring book? I remember liking the books I had to do in school but it was a hassle to get through 'Brave New World' by Huxley. I didn't get it until it was explained and now I love the book...but to get through it the first time was sleep-inducing.

Persuasion was another one. I mean I love Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice is one of my favourite books, but I had to watch the movie of Persuasion before I could finish the book.

Watching the movie version of a boring book helps me get through it. I enjoy making the comparisons, and often in the end, I prefer the book to the movie.

I think so

I've never read the hobvbit but it sounds really dumb. So are Shakespears the only reason teachers like them is because it's poetry. What teachers like in books are alwaysa stupid. I think we should choose the book they read.

ocobsessive · 10-17-2004, 10:13 AM

the most boring book ive ever read was Kestrel for a Knave. Theres like 10 pages describing a tree. i read it in english and even the teacher hated it

I was in a Battle of the Books class and I had to read Little Women.. That book was awful! I couldn't read the whole thing.. I skimmed over like half of it. It was so totally boring and the worst story I had ever read.

Katherine · 10-17-2004, 06:41 PM

I still haven't gottent through Little Women...I mean I know its a classic...but I don't know...I just couldn't keep my eyes open to read it...
Even the movie bores me actually despite a great cast...

i most entirely agree.

i love shakespeare, i read all of them except maybe Henry V, i think he is simply a genius. but i'm sort of an eccentric person. so. hah.

also. The Crucible and Bless Me,Ultima. don't remind me. ugh.

I liked the Hobbit, but not the Lord of the Rings' Books. That was overwhelming... too many people, wars, dark lords and hobbits!

GCL · 11-03-2004, 05:22 PM

Actually, I do like some books of Shakepeare. Like A Midsummer's Night Dream, Much Ado About Nothing (loved the movie too btw), Othello. I like a lot of classics, most of you problably would dislike: Wuthering Heights, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and Prejudice, Little Women, the Great Gatsby and Animal Farm. I had to read them for school and liked every one of them.

Never read the Hobbit or LOTR. I can't put myself to read them, they're so big.
