I need some books to NEVER read.
I pretty much go to the bookstore once a week and get a few more books to keep me occupied.
Is there anything specific that you either read in school or leisure that you hated?

Anything by Ernest Hemingway. Holy shit. Holy fucking shit. Oh my god do I hate Ernest Hemingway. It's all this "men are better than women" crap with completely one-dimensional characters. And I don't mean to sound like a femininist or anything but Hemingway seriously believed that males were superior to females and made all of his female characters stupid and dependent.  |

............
Ulysses -James Joyce
it was very long and confusing.
It has been described as "One of the most important works of Modernist literature, a demonstration and summation of the entire movement." though.
Not my cup of tea.
