even if I hated them!
I don't know...
I could probably burn the ones I hate if I needed fire to keep me alive.
Yes, I saw The Day After Tomorrow recently.

I don't hate the Bible 
No.
I'm sure the torah came before, at least...

Define 'book'. Do you just mean printing-pressed books? In which case it would, I think, be the Bible. Or would you include scrolls, and papyrus, and wax tablets...?
I would rather burn furniture than books. Although if it were a choice between books I hated and which were without any merit whatsoever, literary or otherwise, and a nice piece of furniture, I suppose I'd have to burn the books. But only for survival. After my GCSEs I did consider burning my chemistry work, but I couldn't even manage that.

It broke my heart just to throw away all my notes after 'A' levels.

I don't take notes in my 'A-level' subjects, I just try to remember it all, and end up forgetting 95% of it, or more if I fall asleep.
No, my exam notes, that's the only time of year that I open a book (for school).

The only revision books I can stand are CGP books, and they aren't designed for my syllabus
Do you take WJEC exams?

Yep, I'm doing WJEC. And there are books for my syllabus, but they are BORING!
And your exams are weird.

And your exams are weird.
In what way? The syllabus is similar to most other UK syllabuses, there are only a few differences
I liked all the books I had to do for WJEC A-level English Lit. But then again, I like nearly every book I read 
So that doesn't really help much. And as for burning books - anyone who burns the books they dislike ought to be banned from the entire world of literature. It's like being a christian and expecting to be accepted into the christian community, having killed someone 'bad'. Hahaha. What's wrong with Margaret Atwood? I loved The Handmaid's Tale! I loved Lord of the Flies - I was expecting it to be dark and it was wonderfully so, so I felt very satisfied by the end. *grins*

I think the book I liked least was Good Wives, by Louisa May Alcott. It's the sequel to Little Women and one of the few books that I've started and never finished. So I know I'm not really qualified to pass judgement on it, but I hated it. I don't much like Little Women, either.
As for the worst book I've read, The Da Vinci Code has to be pretty near the top of the list.
Going back to the previous topic, how can you burn books? I can hardly bear to give books away, burning them is just unthinkable.

i wasn't a big fan of that book either. probably cause i had heard that it was going to be so amazing. anyway try another book, like Deception point. it is much better and i think that it is better written as well.
Oooh how do you join this place...it seems, my kinda thing maybe?
