Lord of the Flies. I don't care for the book, the movie or the character study. This beef has been going on since I was in the 8th grade. Real talk. I have a laundry list of reasons to hate that book.

It isn't quite a book, but Hamlet was atrocious. My whole final was based on that, and for the essay portion I wrote about how awful it was and how he should have died in act 1. I love writing papers on why I hate things. It's always so much fun. Pretty much all of the books I had to read for AP English I despised. Fahrenheit 451, The Scarlett Letter, La Morte De Arthur (The Death of King Arthur), Huck Finn, The Great Gatsby, The Crucible, A Separate Peace. Yeah. AWFUL books right there. Some of them wouldn't have been that bad if I hadn't had to do all those analyze the mood, tone, syntax, blah blah blah. That's how you zap the fun out of a book right there man. Lord of the Flies wasn't as bad as those. It was tolerable. Thankfully, my teacher didn't really like that book either so there wasn't a whole bunch of in depth stuff for it. |

Pretty much every book I've been forced to read in english class. Romeo & Juliet wasn't that bad. Neither was To Kill a Mockingbird, or The Giver.

The Great Gatsby can be good, if you have a good teacher who is willing to elaborate. I'd say pretty much anything we read in middle school, because that was when we had to read lame books about acceptance and kindness.

I swear every book we read last year was about racism, except for Romeo & Juliet and Anthem. |
