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?
Nothing But Blackened Teeth by Cassandra Khaw. My first book of theirs and the only good thing I could say about that poorly-written mess of purple prose and obnoxious characters is: at least it was short. I’ve enjoyed other work of theirs that seemed more fitted to their writing style (Hammers on Bone) but I found NBBT incredibly obnoxious.
Boring story, detestable characters. Got it for a couple of quid in a charity shop and even then it wasn’t worth that much.
