So the title says it all...

The books that annoy me are...

1. Those books where their lives are all PERFECT!!!! Then one little thing goes wrong like they loose a shoe or something then the whole books about it like, OMFG!!! I'VE LOST MY SHOE!!! I'M GONNA DIE!!! I mean what's the point in writing a book like THAT?!

2. MODERN books that are wrote with words like "for" and "in which" and "thus" and I'm like "OMG GET OUT OF THE DARK AGES!!!" It's ok if the books are like, Victorian or their like an autobiography of a victorian person.

3. Baby books that have like, ten pages with [SIZE=21pt]huge chunky writing like this[/SIZE] and it's like "Dad jumped into the pool" *next page* "Mum jumped into the pool" *next page* "Rosie jumped into the pool" *next page* "Sam jumped into the pool" *the end* I mean I understand that it's for babies but maybe they could try to make them atleast a little more interesting. And also it's wrote on BIG CHUNKY CARDBOARD. Jeez some people must hate the enviroment.

4. Books in dead short sentences like "Bob is a fish. Sally is a fish too. They both live in the sea." because it's pretty simple to say "Bob is a fish and so is Sally and they both live in the sea" because short sentences make it look like it's wrote by a FIVE year old.

5. Books that go too fast like one minute two kids are walking to school then the next minute their getting attacked by a murderer then the murderer's a werewolf or something. I wrote one stupid like that once but I changed it then I quit it. Forget it existed.

 
Manga, Anime,

Stories that are written in present text, like: "I walk over to Kelly and say "Hi" she answers me back "Hiii!" OR "I am walking down this road. I notice all of these windows, they are cracked "Odd" I am thinking"

Yeah they get really annoying...well sometimes they're alright I suppose

 
The books that annoy me most are... ummm... well, those books that are, like, just the life. Like, say the characters name is Annie, and all that happens are the arguements and making-ups and stuff in life xD :ph34r:

Like the book Heartbeat. The writing is like [SIZE=16pt]this. It really annoys me.[/SIZE]

And when the people talk in Heartbeat, it's like this:

Annie, what's the matter?

Nothing, Mrs Freely.

Hearbeat is the wrose book I have ever read. I had to read it for... school reasons.

Best Wishes,

[[.x..barky..x.]]

 
Yeah real life books are all....grrrr apart from if something really bad or good happens or something.

Edit: Removing something that kind of counted as real life.

Hmm... I dunno, most of the books my friends attempt to write (not to insult them or anything...) like one says "Melanie, a prettty meek girl of thirteen yelled to her mom 'yes I like spaghetti' and ran downstairs' and then another (this one isn't a comedy but me and my mom laughed when we were reading it) there's a part "I opened the door and there had Jenna, my red-haired companion. Jenna was pretty tall with dark red hair" and it was like a video game. I also hate books that go too fast. Oh and fantasy books (and movies) where they talk all weird. Like...well, I can't think of an exact example, but like Star Wars and Eldest, but I still like them, just ot the way the characters talk. Oh and books with absolutely no plot. Real life books aren't that good. Well, ones with lawers working for the mofia or if someone's trapped on a desserted island, are good, but like the babysitters club...meh.

Another type of book I don't like are ones about child abuse because I don't think there's much people who'd want to read about that stuff so why spend time writing it?
What do you mean real life book suck? Child abuse? Its real life. its things that people need to hear about.

Look into a few. real life, is not how you might portray real life. Look up Speak, or Twisted, by the same author, Laurie Halse Anderson (i think that's how you spell it) and you see real life. and its not boring.

Books that get on my nerves are the book that end to quickly. They take their time, and then all of the sudden, its over.

 
Anime is what you watch.

Manga is what you read.

Just wanted to clarrify that.

 

Books like,

I walked up to Suzie. Then she said,

"Hi!~"

Then I replied,

"Hello." back.

 

and books when the characters all have similar names so you get confused. Like if the characters names were: Sara, Sam, Suzie, and Sally.

 

-.- It's needs to be in more details *coughcough*useofadjetives*coughcough*

 

Or books where the text is so small I can't even read it while wearing my new glasses and squinting. ;[

Totally stinks, mostly when you really want to read the book too.

Yeah I said I don't like them, not that they shouldn't sell them. And I meant the real life books that are like girl going to school, girl goes home from school and does homework. Like absolutely nothing interesting happens. The only real life books I like a Jacqueline Wilsons.

The worse book I ever read was a book called Rat Squad. I had to read it at school and it goes waaaaaaaaaaaay too fast and it's something about it that's like a cartoon. Also, it only has 93 pages.

I also hate books that go dead slowly, just annoying and not worth reading and *coughcough*romantic books where they say "Oh John my darling, I love you! My opinion, though some people like them ofcourse.

 
Books written in present text annoy the heck out of me. Any confusing book I haaate. And, ugh, those fantasies where you can never pronounce the character's names. I also haaaaaaate fantasy books that start off expecting you to know the characters, setting, special abilities of the characters, etc. I mean, how the heck would WE KNOW?? Any historical fiction book at all I hate. But what I hate most of all are those books about Native American children. <__< They're allll the same: Life is good, we're all making bracelets and weapons and stuff and then, O NOES! The white people came on their ships and attacked us!! =O Honestly. That happened a long time ago, and it's not really even interesting. Stupid books about preteens with a perfect life and then, the world ends when their fingernail breaks, are also really annoying. And like Missbehave said, those books with only one stupid plot like the character lost a shoe I despise. I generall avoid short books as well. I guess the real prize of KF's most hated books goes to the "classics" like Tom Sawyer and stuff. Usually, they're terrible. I don't get why everyone thinks they're so good. They're written weirdly and make no sense and are amazingly boring. Yep, those are the kinds of books I hate.

 
@Kiwitch_fan: Agreed. Those fantasy books where you can't pronunce the names I mean jeez, if they really must have wierd names can't they be like "Aliminir" or something else people can pronunce. And also agreed with the other ones.

I also hate books where they use a character some one else invented (Like Count Dracula) then they act all like they invented them and make them all stupid and stuff (like making Count a sad pervert who hangs with half naked vampire women with perfect bodies)

And reproductions of books where they change it all and it's dead stupid.

Oh yeah, and books that try to be all funny/scary but it's just stupid (i.e. Goosebumps)

Oh god I could go on forever

 
The Day Bob Lost A Shoe..xD

What books annoy me..

1. Certain history books that are so slanted they're biased, or ones that totally re-write history so they don't contain gore,

2. The primary math books, that are like, "What color is nine? Make friends with nine." Gawd, I'm glad I'm homeschooled, and my teacher (who is my Grandmother, actually), is a microbiologist. o.o

3. The really childish books like, the 'books' -coughwhitetrashcough-, to cartoon movies, when the movies came out first. Like the white trash 'novels' that go to Disney shows and movies like Hannah Montana, and The Incredibles.

4. Books that are labeled 'Fifth Grade' or up, and are about twenty pages of 'Bunny ran across a street.' x.x

 
More:

1. Movie story books, like Princess08 said. I mean GO SEE THE MOVIE!!! Who'd read a movie story book when they can just see the film? Or when like a book's made into a film then another book comes out with the actors and actresses on the front >.>

2. The books by Meg something (the person who wrote princess diaries) it's just little princess girls with perfect lives then they fall in love with some one or become a princess with a perfect life with perfect stuff >.<

3. Sherlock Holmes, YEP SHERLOCK HOLMES!!! Those books every one loves but I think are just silly and oldfashioned and you can hardly understand them

 
Well, it annoys me when people have drawn stuff on the people in the history textbooks at school.

But...that's it really. If I don't like the look of something I don't read it :p

I love manga. Which was random, but it needed to be said.

 
Well I cant exactley stand stories like the stranger it is about some person gets hit by a truck and doesn't talk and when he is somewhere the weather changes to summer. I meen come on how stupid is that? I cant stand the story about Thomas Rivera you know that famous mexican american. It just doesn't seem very interesting well to me it doesn't. I cant stand some of the dr.suess books most of them are fine but a few of them I just cant stand. Those are the stories that annoy me.

Present text
Agreed. Present text makes me wanna die.

Like Princess08 said, movie story books. >_> I mean, like the POTC2 came out, and i bought the book. It had random screenshots and yeah. >_>

Auto Biographies by celebrities. CHRIST, SHADDUP ABOUT HOW PERGFECT/EMO YOU ARE!

 
I think that crap where it has words like, "whom", "alas", "thustly",and "shalt" One time I was reading a random book in my room that someone gave me and it had all those words within the first paragraph of the book and I just shouted 'Godd**mit! What the h*ll is this crap?!" I was lucky my parents weren't there.
