Literally any book that you now dislike due to school. This also applies to other literature styles as well.
Mine is The Hunger Games. I had to read it las year in school and it drove me insane. We started doing the novel study in early February and didn’t finish until May. I finished the book in less than two weeks, so I was pretty much just reading personal books all through English class for close to two months.
It’s not even like we had to analyze it super intensely. It was projects like ‘Make a playlist for a character of your choice’ and we had vocabulary tests every week, that were a joke. It was multiple choice for words like quest and forage. I know that English wasn’t everyone’s first language but come on.
I didn’t even like the book that much in the first place, so all of this was just adding to the misery.
The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. Not that reading it in class made the book a chore to read, I actually liked that part very much. But we were doing the whole thing of analyzing the themes and such and working towards what the ultimate message the book was, right? Well I get sick with something and have to miss a day. When I get back, they’ve finished with that part and have somehow come to the conclusion that the message is “S.E. Hinton wants to be a man.”
No, I have no idea how they reached that conclusion and I did not ask. I enjoyed the book a great deal but I can’t read it again cause I just can’t get over seeing “S.E. Hinton wants to be a man” scrawled on the whiteboard
Oh no! What a way to ruin a great book. Especially one written by a damn teenager! Weird ass take
Okay, but what the tits were they smoking, when the Only Sane Man for two damn books is the random girl? Heck sake!
Couldn’t tell you. Like I said, I didn’t ask cause I didn’t want to know
