Quite honestly I can’t stand only a few books that I’ve read, recently The Awakening by Nora Roberts.

Holy crap, do I reallllyyyyy want my money back. I was bored. So. Bored. The magic system was subpar, the characters just….ew, everything was so, so boring. The MC is an idiot.

What book is a zero star read for you?

    I don’t finish books that I’d rate a 2, so a 0 would be a book so abhorrent I wouldn’t even start it. So Atlas Shrugged gets a 0/5 by me.

      I forced myself to read it to better understand a game based on it(Bioshock-great game) and because I needed to understand it to be able to better disagree with the philosophy it promotes. I already knew enough about the philosophy to know I disagreed with it. After reading it, I found it was not only a philosophy I morally disagree with, it is also nonsensical.
