books that have disappointed you - ZEFRANK.COM

"Bee Season" by Myla Goldberg. Luckily I only paid a quarter for it at a tiny used book store I stumbled into, because even paying that much disappointed me.

"A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole. Blah. There were a few somewhat amusing points, but I barely smiled at anything in the book and had to force myself to finish reading it.

"Gulliver's Travels" - one of only a handful of books I haven't been able to finish. I really enjoy old books, and wanted to like this classic, but it just wasn't for me.
