This happened to me with The Serious Game by Hjalmar Söderberg.
It was billed as Sweden's most enduring love story. I was expecting, well not what I got. If I'm to enjoy a book I have to like at least one of the main characters. In this book there was nothing to like, nothing at all in any of the characters to make me want to cheer for them. But I forced myself to continue reading in the hopes it would get better but no such luck. It went from bad to worse.
I did the "hateread" thing with the rest of the Southern Vampire Mysteries(Sookie Stackhouse books) after I read the second one and honestly wished I hadn't. Once you've read it you can't unread.
If you're dying to see how it ends then by all means finish it but honestly if it's that bad already the chances are it's as good as it's going to get.
