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?

    Yes! The hype surrounding this book was off the charts. I’ve never wanted a book to be over faster than this one, it was slog to finish. The set-up for the shooting for example along much of the plot felt all too convenient. Like you say, it felt like roll call of millennial anxieties, and once we’re done with one we’re swiftly on to the next.

      Ha! I just forced myself to finish this a couple of days ago. Totally agree with your comments and GeddesPrime’s.
