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?

    “The Return of the Time Machine” by Egon Friedel (german title “Die Rückkehr der Zeitmaschine”, I doubt it’s actually been translated).

    The only redeeming quality is that I paid only 2€ for it, but even that feels a bit high.

    It’s a series of fictional letters between Wells and Friedel, with the latter aggressively misunderstanding the original book and physics. That’s all I remember, I don’t think I finished reading it, but it’s probably still in a box somewhere
