Thread Name: Books: Books you regret reading once
Subject: RE: BS: Books you regret reading once
"Even Cowgirls Get The Blues" - Tom Robbins

"The Crying Of Lot 49" - Thomas Pynchon

"The Dean's December" - Saul Bellow (though in a recent lecture Salman Rushdie paid homage to a line in this book - something about a dog barking - that only reinforced the vacuous crappiness of this book)

"Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy" - whoever

"Breakfast Of Champions" - Kurt Vonnegut (or whatever book it was wherein the character said "hi ho" a lot)

"I'm Ok, You're Ok" (but this book is a piece of pop psychology crap....and wins the award for worst title ever)
