30 Day Book Meme - Day 29

Day 29 – A book everyone hated but you liked - I don't know if everyone hates them, but I'm pretty sure my father did after awhile - Two-Minute Mysteries, More Two-Minute Mysteries, and Still More Two-Minute Mysteries by Donal J. Sobol. When I was in middle school, we used to read them in the car. Basically, it's a collection of short mystery stories that requires you to get the clue either from something that should or should not be on the scene, or some arcane "Everyone knows" that neither of us knew. It would have helped had we realized the books were published in 1971. They drove us crazy, but they're entertaining.
A more recent example, not from one of the books:
