Worst book I've quit is Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. What a horrible book!
Worst I've finished is Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck, immediately followed by Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. I'll throw in a special mention for The Scarlet Letter and The Great Gatsby. All terrible books that I finished only because they were required reading in school.
As much as I loved many of Stephensen's books, I could not get into Anathem.
