    Really - and I mean truly - scary Books

    lol! No, it takes a lot to scare me, that's why I am asking for really scary books lol. I am starting to get bored of reading the same old books that promise to be absolutely terrifying and turn out to be the same old hype over nothing. :mad: It really gets me mad!

    What book do you hate but everybody else loves?

    The title of this forum speaks for itself. Is there a certain book out there that everybody is crazy about, but you just hate? An example might be the Da Vinci Code. Loads of people love it, but I think it's a bit too formulae and it lacks flabbergastingly in decription. What do you...
