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 :)

    I absolutely agree with everything you’ve said. I read them all although by the last book I was just skimming it to see what happened. The books all seem to have 3 things: meeting a famous historical person, a natural disaster, and at least one person is raped.
