Oh my. That's a tough question...

The only one that is coming to my mind is that book called Hopeless by Colleen Hoover.... I mean, when I began it, it seemed like it had potential. But too many crazy turns and it left me with a creepy feeling. I would not recommend it for just being a terrible story. Like bad. Even after everything was (somewhat) resolved I was still left thinking "Ew!" So... yeah... But would I say it was the worst? IDK. I'll probably think of a really good one in a little while. Haha!

But I've found that I don't like the new older YA genre... the in-between of YA and Adult fiction (where they are in college and in 'adult situations' but are still incredibly immature)...and this was nearer to that than true YA.

 Also... That Boy by Jillian Dodd... didn't even finish this one. It was just terrible-writing, story, characters. Everything.

 Also, I hate to say that cause she's our Avett fan and her other book 'Slammed' was great.

 Wow! Not what I was expecting you to say. And yeah, disappointing because I did like “Slammed”.  I don’t know how I feel about the New Adult books (I think that’s what they call them), you are right they seem extremely immature, worse so then some Ya novels. I say some because not all are bad.

My least favorite is “The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” by CS Lewis because and this may seem silly, but I read the first four books of the Chronicles of Narnia just fine no problem, this book every time I picked it up no matter day or night, I fell asleep. It was like I would read one sentence and then I was just out.  For that alone I am naming it my least favorite book!
