Zero to the Bone. I forget who the author was. The lead character did a bunch of boneheaded things then was surprised when she got into trouble. Plus the dialog was slow and the book really dragged. I stopped this book before I got halfway through it, too disgusted to finish.

The Secret - page after page of blurbs from celebrities saying the same thing over and over. I posted it on paperbackswap.com after the first two chapters. Thanks the gods I got it from paperbackswap.com and didn't waste any money buying it.

I accidentally picked up a book by Stephanie Hale thinking it was by Shannon Hale. It was all about sorority gossip and intrigue and blah blah blah and not very well written either.

The Govenor by Rod Blagojevich He is an idiot, I thought that reading the book would help me understand him more but in reality all it did was make me hate him more!

The Host by Stephenie Meyer. It dragged along and in the end I was pretty much disappointed that I wasted so much time reading it

I knew he was an idiot, and I didn't have to read the book to get to that conclusion.
