I saw your list, thanks for participating this week! :) <br /><br />@MarceJ: I think it's the ending that really made it all horrible for me.<br /><br />@Stephanie: Thank you! Someone who hates Citizen Girl as much as I did. Haha. It was definitely awful. Have you ever read The Nanny Diaries? Same authors. It was <i>a lot</i> better, wasn't it? How could a writer that has created a good story create such a bad one in Citizen Girl?<br /><br />@dArLyN: I'm actually quite surprised myself to discover that there are a lot of bloggers and other readers who agree with me on that one. Check out the other lists of some bloggers -- Breaking Dawn is included ;)Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-18056246467267831242010-04-24T20:38:57.220-07:002010-04-24T20:38:57.220-07:00woo-hoo..1st time ever i heard someone think break...woo-hoo..1st time ever i heard someone think breaking is one of the worst.haha..but i love IT! *LOL*Darlynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927101155673957650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3868395077988310106.post-62128629142940107592010-04-24T17:10:41.484-07:002010-04-24T17:10:41.484-07:00Citizen Girl was SO utterly full of awful that I w...Citizen Girl was SO utterly full of awful that I wanted to throw it.

I loved your list by the way! Definitely agree with most of them!<br /><br />@Heather: I can't even believe I actually read her stuff. It's just that people have so many different opinions about her, and like the dork that I am, I just had to find out for myself! I completely agree -- she is quite an elitist, imo. <br /><br />@Life After Jane: Yes, I might never actually try another Stephenie Meyer book unfortunately. Breaking Dawn was just an awful book to read. It did not do anything for the series as a whole at all. <br />And what a great idea to include 'bad books' in the bookstore, except I don't think others -- aka the authors -- would like that very much. haha. <br /><br />@Christina T: I also purchased The Lost Symbol -- total regret afterward! You know, I might actually have to reread The Da Vinci Code. I liked that book a lot, but maybe because I was like 13 or something when I first read it and I was much easier to please.<br /><br />@Amelia: Aww sorry! I really can't stand Ann Coulter though. And I think like I said with Atlas Shrugged, it's a 'either you like it or hate it' kind of book. I know a lot of people -- bloggers, friends, and family -- that love it to bits. Maybe it's just me...<br /><br />@Natalie: "I liked the three books well enough" is the perfect way to sum it up. Breaking Dawn turned me against the series as well. <br /><br />@Kris: Aww, sorry! I really didn't like it though. I know some that loved it. Maybe that was just me.. <br /><br />@Kim: I love The Time Traveler's Wife :) I do know several people though -- like, ahem, my own mother&cousin haha -- who hated the novel. They said it bored them to death.

I actually liked the first three books well enough (though like you said, I also had problems with the main character). They weren't awesome, but they weren't awful either.
