That’s a lot of punishment you’ve put yourself through if you think 14/15 of them are 0 stars!!

Worst of GRRMs ASOIAF books for sure. The iron islands bits were incredibly boring. But I’m not sure it’s a 0

I quite enjoyed the first one as it was the first time I’d read any scandi crime type drama.

The second and third ones are more of the same but even more boring. Would not recommend those if you didn’t enjoy the first one!

His approach to spoilers is pretty brazen.

He often includes them in his authors notes/forewords at the start of his books!

Is Holly the only one you’ve read?

It seems like an odd choice to start with the 6th book that a character appears in that isn’t really in his core genre rather than some of his more classic works like IT or Pet Sematary or the early ones like Carrie and Salems Lot.

Yeah later is just meant to be him doing some pulp fiction.

I thought it was okay, super weird twist ending.

Someone did a review on here that was absolutely savage that was something along the lines of

I wish I’d followed Kyas fathers example and noped out of this book in the first chapter

I think any self help book is going to have things in that are useful and some that are useless and those are going to differ from person to person.

I found some of it useful to be honest and rolled my eyes quite heavily at others.

For me Rule 2

“Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping.”

And that chapter were worth reading the book for on there own.

In that one he talks about how people end up actually getting more prescriptions filled/ checkups attended for their pets than they do for themselves.

For me that really resonated and since then I made sure I’d booked my eye test, got my dentist appoints re booked and made sure I filled my meds on time!

Deception Point I think.

Also had possible aliens and special forces soldiers making bullets out of ice and sand?

I mean it was absolutely ridiculous but it was a very easy read.

Early teenage me ate that up!

I just finished Project Hail Mary and really enjoyed that. Also really enjoyed The Martian.

I guess you are saying don’t bother with this one!
