To be even more fair, whether a book is badly read is very subjective. I have come across one book that I would really like to read, but I don't like the reader. The book is Folly by Laurie R. King. The reader is probably fine, I just don't like the way he reads so I am not going to buy that book. Another one that got terrible reviews is the book Room, that lots of people complained about the way it was read. I also read some of the reviews before making a purchase unless it is a reader I know already.

Surely, a reader makes you want to listen to a book. I don't know about any one on this list, but if a person can't read the book well, what I mean, if an actor can't describe what is going on well, then I for one would not buy it. For me, a person has to bring a book to life if it's being read other than you. Kawal.
