I think it's a tie between A Death in the Family by James Agee, The Stranger by Camus, The Sorrows of Young Werther by Goethe, Villette by Charlotte Bronte, and White Horse Rider by some German. I know Sorrows of Young Werther and White Horse Rider aren't really books, but I think they count anyway.

Julie, you have to be messing with us.  No one has ever read The Sorrows of Young Werther.  I adapted it and I never even finished it.
then I'm sending you into space!!! I cried when I read that!

Send me into space if you must, but don't cry.  I was just kidding.  Look:

I know, I was joking/lying.  I actually adapted Schiller's Mary Stuart, which I did read.  There are a few references to Sorrows in it, but I never bothered to read it. 

"It" meaning my play, which I now realize was unclear.
see what happens when you don't finish reading something? it's a good thing tom hung up on me.
I have a long history of booing
