I just bought Little Women and I'm willing to try to read it.
I haven't watched the movie though...should I?

I would have to say "The Pluckiest Boy in School"...-_-

I have never quite finished reading 'The Similarion' by JRR Tolkein. The plot was uninteresting, it was just plodding through, there was too much "walking" and not enough background on the characters, the dialouge was sparse and,well...

Definatly one of Tolkeins worse.

Bound in Blood by Tom lord. I read this book, in hopes to see hot guy on guy vampire action, boy did this book suck ><

I did not like great Expectations had to read it for a class, So boring.

For me Charles Dicken's has amazing plot lines. But I'm not fond of his language or the way he writes.

We had to read Of Mice and Men last year in English. It was soo boring. I couldn't even get through the first chapter. I love to read, but sometimes I

cliffnotes! lol.

I really disliked MacBeth and the LOTR and The Hobbit, they are so boring. I love books.

Katherine · 03-24-2005, 07:33 AM

Macbeth is so boring...I mean I thought with such an interesting plot line it'll be ok to read...but I have to admit that's the first Shakespeare play I couldn't get through...and I love Shakespeare...i was ashamed of myself...until i realised so many people couldn't get through it either....

I had to read a book for school once.
I was called "Young Shoulders" and it was awful.
And another book I had to read for school, was "Der Verlorene" by Hans Treichel.
It was not only awful, no it was painful!!!!

Yeah...Lady Macbeth is a good character that treacherous hag...but yeah even she couldn't fix it...

I even had to watch the Japanese version of Macbeth...'Throne of Blood' and even though it was Kurosawa I couldn't watch it....I fell asleep then left...

alcarinque · 03-29-2005, 08:33 PM

Little women...Gone with the Wind...Ethan Frome...Pride and Prejudice...and Dotsotoevsky or whatever...Sense and Sensibilty...A Tale of Two Citites...the list is endless...

tinaweird · 04-12-2005, 06:30 AM

pride and prejudice turned out to be quite fun! i'm very surprised you didn't like it, you should see the BBC tv...movie...thingy production of it. i guess it seems a lot better acted out than on paper.

hm, anyways. absolutely worst? wuthering heights. boring? wuthering heights. i dislike that book with passion. i stopped reading it halfway through, and i stuck with sparknotes for my essay.

Katherine · 04-12-2005, 08:48 PM

^^^ Then you should take your advice for Pride and Prejudice...the BBC production of P&P made the book one of my favoruties now....
I couldn't start Wuthering Heights either and then I watched the movie...the old one with Laurence Olivier and I LOVE THAT BOOK....I know it's weird and at times tedious...but the movie will make the book that much better...
