Some books give us joy and happiness, but a few books out there are the worst, aren't they?

The bible (and other religious text). It just creates too much of a divide, hate and bigotry and is also very contradictory.
Yeah, who wants a book that teaches people to not kill, not steal, to be faithful to their spouse, to love their enemies, and to help others. Don't blame the bible for people's individual choices to not follow what it says.
The Twilight books, because of sparkly vampires and its fan fiction 50 Shades of Grey. Need I say more?
Not written as such, but published....
‘Go Set a Watchman’, billed as a sequel to ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’. It was never a sequel, it was a first draft of the original book that Harper Lee was deeply unhappy with, to the extent she left SPECIFIC instructions it never be published.
A year after her death, Harper Collins roll out her ‘hidden gem’, kept in a safe until they could profit off it, completely ignoring her wishes.
And as a book, it crushes the deeply important and cherished narrative of the original.
Greedy publisher travesty.
"Should Have Never Been Written" is a loaded phrase. There are books I wish didn't exist, like many of the Oppression-Hierarchy books that have been flooding the market by FOTM philosophers. Saying they shouldn't exist implies I wish to censor them. While I disagree strongly with those seeking to force us all into racial categories from which we cannot ever escape, saying that they shouldn't get their say is a whole matter all together. Censorship is a very dangerous road, and it is best to avoid it altogether if you can.
There is this book called "Quarantine." I read it, thinking it was about COVID-19 but it wasn't. It was about a teen who had been exposed to "tropical mono," and kissed a boy so she wouldn't have to quarantine alone. It was terribly written and I wasted time in my life reading it.
Anyone can be cool
... But awesome takes practice...
WHY... NO.... ITS... NOT... EVEN... WORTH... READING...... I ONLY READ IT BECAUSE IT LOOKED STUPID
nothing but the truth. my teacher is making us read it. help.
Most book should never have been written. They are literally a waste of paper.
