I hate A Wrinkle in Time. IDK, I just don't like scifi. I also dislike Great Expectations/

Yeah. @GoofyFoofer, my friend (who saw me reading it) said that she almost threw up after reading it.

A Wrinkle in Time was so important to my childhood! I can't actually remember much of it anymore, but I might pick it up again. A lot of Madeleine L'Engle's stuff was really amazing to me when I was, like, 10. Who knows what I'd think of them now.

What else is really bad... Silas Marner is the dullest book I've ever tried to read.

I'm going to be cliche here but...Ulysses By James Joyce is exceedingly dull, and the fact that it "boasts" one of the longest sentences in the English language isn't exactly a good boast to make.

Also, I think the Phantom Tollbooth is vastly overrated.
