I really don't enjoy books based on wars or specific events in history. I like historial fiction, but I don't like reading about the war or whatever when it is very serious and fact-y. I can read a text book for that.

I like war books only when there is something other then humans they are fighting, and even then the book has to have a reallly good plot for me to like it. I hate books that have nothing but drama in it, and they're all about who likes who. Except it do like what-if books, don't get me wrong. I also don't like books that has so much description in it, you forget what started it in the first place. I hate it when an author trails off and takes a whole chapter to describe the scene of the sidewalk or a flower. I'm not saying I don't like description, it sets the scene. But don't go overboard.

I don't like books geared towards the teenage girl population. ie: the Gossip Girl series and such. That stuff is dime a dozen.

i don't like paperback romance (the kind with a half naked man, and a beautiful woman on the front, and a title like "Forbidden love")
I don't like most chic lits, but there are a few authors I do enjoy.
I don't like ill-thought through fantasy.

I don't like war fiction very much, I'm not quite sure why but I tend to stay away from anything that revolves around fighting. And those scary looking romance books(like the ones that Dewdew mentioned) are something I would never pick up, they just lack potential for me. And also awfully descriptive books, don't get me wrong though I absolutely love a good description but there's a limit to how much you can say about a certain thing.

-Fictionalized accounts of real Wars.
-Fantasy novels that read like a Dungeons and Dragons Game
-Choose your own adventure novels (cool concept, awful choice of stories)
-Books with bland main characters
-Novels by Authors who base their characters on stereotypes
