the most boring book in history

At the moment i am supposed to be reading Emma for my HSC english. I have been unable to read it so far, but it isn't for lack of trying - i've read the first 4 chapers about 6 times...nothings gone in, thats all...whoever critiques this book and says that it is even of some interest needs their head examined. Gossiping and meticulous dialogue pretty well sum it up...<br>As for the rating...are we able to go into negative numbers?<br>Seriously though, if you don't have to read this book, DON'T!!!
