What book have you read that wasn’t subjectively “bad” but you regrets reading all the same?

For me, Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter. The book was engaging and it kept me on my toes, but I just with I hadn’t “poisoned my head” with all the graphic gore that was in there. I years later i still think about this and how I really wish I had never read it.

Question inspired by a comment /u/PrincessOfWales made in another thread :)

    Yes it just kept getting more depraved. It’s been years and sometimes the visual of the guy with the mask just lingers in my head and I HATE it

      Me too. It’s been many years and I still get random flashes of this book. I wish I’d never read it
