What's your favorite guilty pleasure book?

<p>You know, the kind you'd cover up in newspaper if reading in a crowded place. Like Dan Bergstein with his "Not New Moon". The kind that you * know * is an insult to literature or just not the type of book you'd normally read, and yet, well, you're addicted anyway.</p>

<p>I'm wondering how many people will say Twilight. Or Mills and Boons. Or zombie porn. Or something.</p>

<p>For the record, for me it's the Private series by Kate Brian.</p>

<p>Zombie porn? What the hell?!</p>

<p>Flowers in the Attic. The characters were unbelievable, the plot was stupid, the writing was poorily written, but I couldn’t put it down.</p>

<p>Oh, that silly Twilight series. Too many people got into them, but not me. </p>

<p>Anything by James Patterson. I hate reading them because they’re just such bad literature, but they are entertaining. </p>

<p>If you want good literature, read any of George Orwell’s essays. Those are quality, as well as entertaining.</p>

<p>Lol. I wasn’t asking for good lit recommendations, don’t worry. :)</p>

<p>I regret to say I haven’t read anything by James Patterson. Oh, and indeed, zombie porn exists.</p>

<p>Do Americans read Enid Blyton?</p>

<p>Twilight. and The Host. I’m not an obsessive fangirl or anything, I just kind of enjoyed the books.</p>

<p>The Luxe series. I guess it’s the 1800s Gossip Girl book. I’m really addicted to it. I always take the cover off of it though, so nobody sees me reading it, haha.</p>

<p>The Ugly series. Ugly I wasn’t too ashamed of (especially since it was for book club), but I felt really awkward carrying about the sequel which was entitled “Pretties.” Not sure if it counts so much as a guilty pleasure though, since it wasn’t really good…</p>

<p>I always wondered what it was about. The cover art is pretty.</p>

<p>Star Wars extended universe books…Yes, I am obsessed ;)</p>

<p>My Uglies copy is pink with pictures of mutilated Barbies on it. My friends think it’s a Gossip Girl-type book.</p>

<p>Prep. Personally, I like it. But carrying around a book that blatantly says “Prep” and has a pink belt on the cover, something about it is a little embarrassing to me. </p>

<p>Actually, a lot of books. I mean carrying around a book like, say, A Separate Peace (that was a good book) isn’t that embarrassing to me but books with embarrassing titles, covers, or content (usually chick lit that’s more suitable for tweens than 20 year olds; I thought devil wears prada was a pretty classy book, seeing as it could’ve come out as total garbage) like, say, shopaholic, ughhhh.</p>

<p>^^^^^^^Haha, Twilight and the Host:) I’m not obsessed, but by no means do I hate the books like everyone else on this website:/</p>

<p>Harry Potter, I feel like a dork reading it but it’s my favorite</p>

<p>Not sure if this counts, but when I was reading Angels and Demons I had a huge copy, hard cover, with illustrations. Very conspicuous. I was wondering if any of the priests at my school would say something, since I go to a Catholic school and they seem not to like Dan Brown. They didn’t notice, but a lot of students did. </p>

<p>I agree with the Uglies series. I also used to read the Princess Diaries series but I’ve since stopped.</p>

<p>I was really obsessed with the private series too QuasiProfound. For me it was also the It Girl series</p>

<p>The Twilight series, although I try not to be ashamed of it. ;p</p>

<p>Eragon and Alera seris.</p>

<p>Ah, It Girl! Yes, that too. But since last year I’ve been trying to get rid of ‘guilty pleasures’. Also, I think I’ve got too many other books to read and not enough time, so there are less guilty pleasure books now than back in freshman and sophomore years.</p>

<p>I’m also a victim of the It Girl. :(</p>

<p>I thoroughly enjoyed The Host. Go Ian! haha. She’s such a bad writer though : P</p>

<p>I used to be really into chick lit. Sarah Dessen anyone?</p>
