12 Hilarious One Star Book Reviews

Few things make me laugh more than hilarious one star books reviews.

Most books worth their salt have garnered at least a few godawful reviews. Often it is a case of the reviewer being opposed to the general consensus. In many instances bad reviews reveal more about the reviewer than the book.

Here is the latest instalment in my ‘One Star Book Review’ series.

1984 by George Orwell – ‘He (Orwell) doesn’t know a thing about the 80s. Not ONCE did he mention Def Leppard or Karma Chameleon.’

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone – ‘… my son cud not understand it. I also, cud not understand it.’

Lord of the Flies by William Golding – ‘answer me this- can you read a book where the author describes a twig for five pages???’

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson – ‘DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK YOU WILL DIE FROM BOREDOM!!!’

1984 by George Orwell – ‘Go away book, go away.’

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince – ‘… personally, I DO NOT agree with Harry Potter books.’

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens – ‘Twee, grisly and fawning, the greatest turkey ever told.’

Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy – ‘…, if you see Anna for $5 at your neighbor’s garage sale, go ahead and buy it. Hollow it out, and stash a handgun in there … Beat your disobedient child with it. Put it in your fireplace … Just don’t read it!’

Sepultura by Guy Portman –‘I made it to page 17 and was done.’

Brave New World by Aldous Huxley – ‘… for the love of God don’t read that ‘Brave New World’ book by Hoxley. It’s twice as bad as 1984.’

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury – ‘Heyyyy I had to read this book for school and it was the worst thing I ever read.’

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald – ‘Twentieth Century Masterpiece, NO; 2 days of incrediably wasteful reading I will never get back.’
