I have two. The Ritual and Drowning.

The Ritual is pure smut. 61 chapters and every one contains a graphic, demeaning sex scene. I’m convinced the author was an adult film screenwriter and decided to try their hand at writing a novel. There isn’t a single likable character in this book.

Drowning isn’t a great work of literature. I felt that the characters were very two-dimensional. I hated how naive the author made the protagonist. It made me have a lack of sympathy for her. The ending was series finale of Dexter bad.

    I finished it but I found it very cringey. It might be fine for like a pre teen audience as a nice lesson in diversity and acceptance but I’m confused at all the adults who read it and act like it’s the most groundbreaking, wholesome thing ever written.

    It was just way over the top and the lesson of the story was pounded into us instead of just telling a story and having the reader infer the underlining theme.
