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 literally started and DNF’d this yesterday. I only check reviews after I’ve read or given up on a book, so I was astounded when I checked Goodreads and saw that it has a score of 4.2/5. It was sort of infuriating to see *this* rated so highly when other more deserving, actually well-written books tend to hover around 3.7. It’s so baffling.
