What's the most pointless book you've ever read?

The Bible.

A "biology" book from a Christian school that I basically had to unlearn everything from when I went to college. I would say being worse than useless.
- I've had some of those, had to do the same unlearning. Did you know fossils are fake and actually only 6000 years old, and that carbon dating actually has flaws? Oh yes and the eye is way too complex for evolution to have been the cause. Just too complex. It's the perfect organ and it must have been made by hand.
  
  Yeah. It's actually really shit because they take one of the most important fundamental parts of science (admitting flaws and uncertainty) and attempt to use it as a way to attack it.
  I actually think the more subtle stuff like that is more damaging. While the "god put fossils there to test our faith" takes can more easily be undone.
- I've heard of these. What were some take aways?

  This reddit post has one of the books popular with the creationist homeschoolers. But, honestly, the history books were far worse. Basically white supremacy and American history but from the perspective of it being proposed by God and a positive thing.
  Trail of Tears and Manifest Destiny being God making way for his people. And not just a massive genocide of indigenous people.
  Looking back. I'd say most textbooks I read besides Math I had to unlearn. In some way. It's basically 90% correct information but written to reach the complete opposite conclusions of reality.

I read a really stupid one about a clubbing community. They randomly made a time machine. I can't remember the name but I remember laughing at how fucking ridiculous it was.

Give and take by Adam Grant.
The book explains givers and takers and their stories in life and careers.
The problem is that all the stories about givers are about how they got screwed over and ended up not reaching their goals in life and not evolving their careers.
- Well, not motivational for sure, but how realistic
  
  That's how I felt about it too
- Often reality. There isn't a career path that profits the rich that also allows you to just go out and help people.
  
  Exactly!

Never finished it, but Watership Down. Got a few chapters in and decided I did not give a shit about the minutiae of a rabbit colonies lives.
- I loooovveeed the film of that when I was a kid. So I will now pointlessly defend the book despite having never read it.
  
  The book is very long. Maybe the film cut it down and helped it get to the point?
