I just read Var the Stick by Orson Scott Card. It was really, really weak. It amazes me that a guy who wrote Ender's Game could write trash like this.

Davinci Code. Put aside all the religious crap that's happened because of this book. It was just really poorly written. I barely made it through the book.

The Shanarra Series by Terry Brooks. OK, take any one book from the series and it's a good book. But every single book is exactly the same formula, the same everything. I kept reading through more and more of them hoping for a change, but I never got it.

Any Wheel of Time (Robert Jordan) book past book 7. Wow does it ever drag on now. I was so into that book, but I never even made it halfway through book 10. What a snoozefest.
