books that weren't as good as people made them out to be

[Beatrice]

The Fine Print. The story is very predictable.

once upon a broken heart

Priory of the Orange Tree. I wanted to love this book so bad and I just didn’t. The story drags on so much and for no reason. I DNFd the book 500 pages in with no connection to any of the characters and nothing substantial had even happened. I’m so bummed

[Julie]

All the Light We Cannot See, All the Bright Places, and Kite Runner.

[Megan (sporadic hiatus due to law school)]

Haunting Adeline and the Dreamland Billionaires series! The writing style of both just did not speak to me at all, and I didn't really care for the plot or the characters in Haunting Adeline...

[Boriana]

How To Kill Your Family
Where The Crawdads Sing - they should’ve made a movie to some other book not this one
Verity
Circe

[Alaysia]

The red queen series. Everyone was praising the book and how they never saw the plot twist at the end coming. But in my opinion the main character got on my nerves and the plot twist was obvious from the very beginning.

just any Colleen Hoover book

[Lili ✿]

Harry Potter is so overrated, first one is okay,, downhill from there. Why are the later books so flipping long? They really don’t need to be…
I didn’t even think they were worth having on my profile as it would just be super negative anyways.

Archer’s Voice, hated it thoroughly 😇

[Adam]

Midnight's Children, the premise was great but I felt it was really underwhelming.

[LittleBookLoves]

The Secret History (boring)
Crescent City (I may give it one more try)
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (way too much internal thought and not nearly enough interesting dialogue or action)

"How To Kill Your Family": of the fabulous title, meh contents ilk

ninth house by Leigh Bardugo, I really tried but I just could not get through it. I've also picked up six of crows a few times and still haven't finished it, this will be my last chance if I don't make it to chapter 2 I'm done. lol

icebreaker

where the crawdads sing
it ends with us
the inheritance games- the first book was boring but the second one was better
the folk of the air- the first book was kind of boring bit the other 2 books were pretty good
