Books you would not recommend to others

[CONTRAST]

I have a TON of these. So if you want to stay away from books that will leave you cringing or bored, I'm composing a list, with explanations. Please add on your own and post if you have anything to add, or if you disagree/agree, whatever. I'm sorry if I'm harsh, but this is just my opinion.

First of all, Wither by Lauren DeStefano. Oh, lord, I could barely finish this. The cover was pretty and all, but the plot was awful. It's supposed to be a dystopian novel where women die at the precise age of 20 and men when they reach 25. Goodness. The world building was cringe-worthy and left me confused. There were contradictions everywhere.

A Touch Mortal by Leah Clifford. I could barely understand what was happening here. I just went with whatever happened, all the time thinking "Did I miss something?" I don't recommend this book. It made me feel somewhat depressed, actually. Also, the heroine, Eden, is a bit annoying. The mythology was confusing, and I still don't understand what the term "Screamer" means.

Moon Called by Patricia Briggs wasn't a bad book. It was just a bit boring. It didn't keep me engaged whatsoever.

The Twilight Saga. I could go on, but the sparkling vampires say it all.

I wanted to read something different, so I read The Snow Bride by Debbie Macomber. Bad idea. It was supposed to be a romantic comedy but there wasn't really anything romantic about it. Or funny, for that matter.

Beastly by Alex Flinn. It was so unrealistic.

Oh my. Witch by Nancy Holder. This was dreadful. The worst of the worst. I didn't survive long enough to read the whole thing, but it was just so awful! And I read a part of the second book because I was curious. Holly, the main character, drowns a cat for no good reason. Ughh. I only liked the part where the octopus killed half of the characters, but Holly didn't die. Shame.

That's it for now, but I'm sure I'll think of more later.

Okay, firstly:
Twilight!!!

And you all know why. I wouldn't open that book with a ten foot pole, for the fear of a sparkling idiot to leap out screaming, "You smell tasty...but no, I love you!"

Infinity
Sherrilyn Kenyon

*Reads first chapter and groans* What the fluff was that supposed to be? Really? I hated the characters within just the first chapter.
And the supposed "street talk from the street-savvy mr. perfect main character" was heavily overused. I dare not say more, besides this: Blehhhhhh.

The Jaguar Princess
Clare Bell

Okay, sure. I usually like this author's materials, but to be honest, this one was a literal stinker. It was oh-so-very boring and I had NO idea who was who.
What's that? Mr. Fuddermunken of Jujuland is taking over the throne because Mr. Fuddermunchkin of Jujuvillage took a vacation? That's great, congratulations. Can we get on with the storyline?
Where's the cat people? Oh, twelve chapters within a bunch of garbage. And even then, it isn't much. She grew claws and clawed open a basket. GASP.

I might add on or subtract, I change my mind a lot xD

A MILLION SHADES OF GRAY
Cynthia Kadohata
(When I do bold, it's my thoughts. When I do not-bold, it's what happened in the book.)

It's about this kid named Y'Tin who likes training his elephant, Lady. Yawn, some excitement please? His village is captured by the horrors of the Vietnam War, but Lady runs away to the jungle, like some of the villagers. The South Vietnamese soldiers were told to burn down the village, so they did, and Y'Tin and his best friend escaped. What's the chance of them escaping? Like, 1 in 1,000,000? They meet with the friend's brother How could so many people escape? Geez. and try to find the camp the escapees set up. It's only been a few days since the South Vietnamese came and you already have a whole camp? They find the camp, and one of Y'Tin's friends goes missing, so he tries to find them in the South Vietnamese-infested jungle.That's just common sense, not to walk happily to your death! He finds his friend, really injured but alive, The chances of him being gone for 2 days with major injuries is slim. JUST DIE ALREADY! so Y'Tin brings him to the camp. Then, Y'Tin runs off to find his precious elephant, Lady. How can you care about an elephant over your own family, you jerk! He finds her with a baby elephant, is like 'who's baby elephant is that?' then remembers that Lady was pregnant. All I hear is blah, blah, blan, Y'Tin's village, blah blah, South Vietnamese, blah blah the end. Lame!
