for me, it was the Harry Potter books
really didn't do it for me, I couldn't even make it past the first chapter of the first book

also The Cruel Prince
way too overhyped, it was just so slow to get into and there was nothing really there for me

Navya C | 22 comments I read "Toxic" because I saw it recommended on BookTok, where people said it was good, but it was soo bad.

Yeah, I wrote a review if you want to check it out, but hands down, it's the worst BookTok recommendation I've read.

Yes, I agree. I liked it, don't get me wrong, but it is just overhyped I think the best of the Twisted series was Twisted Games.

What? No, why? Well, maybe the story and plot are all that interesting or surprising, but I read it for the romance. I think it lives up to its title of romantasy 100%. What do you think?


message 17: by Marcie (new)

Marcie The Ninja | 3 comments @Navya, It's branded as like an enemies to lovers, but it's not, and I just didn't think it was that good of a book.


Clara Mei &#x1f36a;&#x1f3a7; | 1 comments I read Phantasma and Megal Slinger thinking that it was gonna awesome, but i found Phantasma kinda meh for what people was saying. I liked it, but the trials were not anything special and Metal Slinger is just worthy because of the last 2 chapters (but i think that the 2 book of metal slinger can be pretty interesting)

Penny 『The BookNerd』(Sawako-core era) | 8 comments Divergent — hunger games rip off but more romance and terrible plot and world building…also cringey cliche characters and lines

Taiya | 1 comments For me def the cruel prince I tried so hard to read it but couldn’t enjoy it or get passed Cardans tail 💀


sloan &#x1f497;&#x1f497; | 2 comments 100% the cruel prince, I had the dnf the first book and I never got back to trying to read it again. It was just boring and I wasn’t into it. I’ve been wanting to try it again though

-sloan


*・Acacia・* (3 week full hiatus) Gosh I was going to say the cruel prince too…. ( no hate please )

Eden (Snips) | 12 comments For me, I really didn't like the Red Queen Series. I liked the first book, but they kept getting worse. Mare never learned from her mistakes, and they were like 1,000 people who liked her, but she had chemistry with none of them. I would have liked if her character developed better.

Sorry!

Addison Nance | 4 comments Unpopular Opinion: Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. My friends kept recommending them to me and I tried reading them but I never could get into them. They were slow and really hard to read. Excitement and action usually only appeared halfway through the book, so for the first like 200 pages I was just reading words.
