The worst book you have read

[Manephelien]

The worst book I ever read and managed to finish was "Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus" by Mary Shelley. It was obvious the author was barely out of her teens when she wrote it, and for some reason it was also obvious that she wrote with pen and ink rather than typing, something about the convoluted structure of the language. Also, the author had a moral in mind when she wrote her book, and kept hitting the reader over the head with said moral throughout the story. The idea was interesting, but the execution, at least to modern eyes, lacking.
