If you did not enjoy a book, let others know about it. They will  appreciate it.  Be specific though, in case something you don't like turns out to be just perfect for someone else.

I did not enjoy the book, "invisibility" by Andrea Cremer and David Levithan.
The beginning of the novel was very interesting and i could not put the book down, however after reading the part where Elizabeth had found out about Stephan being invisible it began to get repetitive.
All and all i would not recommend this book to others.

Beautiful Disaster - Jamie McGuire

This book is boring, misogynistic and absolutely horrifying in the fact that an abusive relationship is romanticized.
'Mad Dog' as he is called, stalks, hits, commands and controls our main character and the author expects us to think that he is dreammmyyy?

UH NO. Abusive relationships should not be romanticized in such a matter which makes this book a dead-end. Not to mention it was horrifyingly long, tedious and who in heck names their girlfriend Pigeon? Would you really fall in love with a guy who nicknames you after a rat with wings?

i did not like the book because it wasn't very visual in the mind to think about what was going on

I did not enjoy the book UNDER THE MOON by Gabriele it was very frustrating to read and follow as it jumped from one thing to another and mentioned countless characters and became confusing because the story line was hard to follow, couldn't even make out a theme or main character.

I did not like the book The Last Juror because it was very hard to follow and it did not interest me at all. The novel was about a murder but the story line was hard to follow. I would not recommend this novel to people because it was poorly written and edited.

Catching Fire
Suzanne Collins

Catching Fire is the second book in a series of three books in the hunger games series. After winning the annual hunger games, victors Katniss and Peeta are reluctantly beginning their victory tour around the various districts of Panem. Meanwhile, Tensions are brewing between the Capitol and the Districts. Now seen as a threat to the capitol, and looked up upon as the leader of all these uprisings, Katniss is in danger and President Snow is prepared to do anything in his power to prevent another uprising. I felt the storyline can be slow at times but there are numerous action parts, such as fighting in the arena. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Catching Fire and would strongly recommend this book to others. Catching Fire is a personal favorite of mine, and leaves me wanting more.

Shattered
Eric Walters

Shattered is one of the many books in the Eric Walters series and it is an amazing book. i loved it because of the size of the book and the characteristics of the characters in this novel. This is an easy read with a lot of conflict and compassion from the characters.this is the best Eric Walters book that i have read.

I have read Cyrano de Bergerac in French. I was not pleased with this book because it was a very difficult read. It got recommended to me by a teacher and it was a big disappointment for me. The only thing I would change about this book is to add some easier themes, but it had a good plot. But at the end of the day I couldn't connect to the characters and that bugged me.

Beautiful Creatures - Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl

Oh my god. This book is pretty much the worst book I've ever read - I honestly tried to read all the way through to the end but the plotline was just so boring, petty, and recycled that I didn't really see the point (even 3/4 of the way through). The only thing that endears me even a little to this book is the male protagonist - which is rare in a teen fiction love story. It's almost 100% Romeo and Juliet, but with supernatural powers (which are inexplicable and vague?) the plot was choppy, and frankly, the whole ' punish all women in the family for the mistake of one ' is misogynistic, and it's getting old. They are the only ones who must choose between good and evil - I think this is a shallow cover-up for lack of depth in certain characters ( I'm looking at you Ridley.)
Overall, I'd give this book a solid 2.5/10. Eurgh.

The Giver by Lois Lowery was a disappointing and dull book in the end. A lot of parts in this book were predictable and I lost interest after a few chapters. After i fished the book i wish i just quit before
