Catcher in the Rye for me. Such an awful work of literature. Horrible character development, boring, and contains no redeeming qualities.

I can't say I was crazy about the great gatsby if we're talking about books we had to read for high school that sucked.

Apparently it's the first in a series, so maybe some loose ends are taken care of, although I've only read The Giver like you. I personally didn't think it was that bad.

This book, however, gave me cancer.

I hated catcher in the rye as well, but that doesn't mean it's an awful work of literature. You can dislike a book but you still have to respect something like that. Same goes for me and a bunch of Hemingway books

Most disturbing book I've read was by far Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov. It's essentially an entire book about a pedophile.

Hard to believe that these are all actual books; but still hilarious.

Completely thought this was "most disturbing books". My bad.

Aristotle's Poetics was easily the worst book I've read.
