    1984
    It was another book about crooked and controlling governments but has a little too much science fiction for me.
  • The catcher in the rye

    The catcher in the rye
    I didn't like this book at all because at first you think he's going to do some awesome crazy stuff while he's alone for a week or so but then he just acts like a beezy and complains and whines for the whole book.
  • Hamlet

    Hamlet
    Although it's considered a classic I do not like this book. The story and metaphors are good but the language is dated. It's basically like reading a different language or an old person trying to understand today's slang.
