I agree! I also think The Housemaid is overrated.

For me, it was The Summer I Turned Pretty series. They were poorly written and not very engaging. The tv series is really good though.

I really don’t understand the hype around It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover. To me, at least, it romanticizes abuse in a way? I get the same vibes from A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara.

I didn't find it romanticizing abuse tbh because it was clear Ryle was supposed to be a bad person, however it scares me how many people justify Ryle's abuse though online.

Once upon a broken heart, Good plot idea and character ideas, I didn't like the execution of it though

The Martian. Incredibly overhyped when the writing and characters are very bland and the book itself is very repetitive. I found the science stuff understandable, but only because they went out of their way to overexplain everything.

So sorry but Icebreaker by Hannah Grace wasn’t all that

[Sophie]

Every Colleen Hoover book, they should all just be burned

Okkk i've read quite a few popular book and the most overhyped books I read are these following ones
Six of crows, I'm sorry I hate when authors don give direct pov's of the character like ex."she heard a voice"
it's like a ick and I hate the amount of non direct pov's. But that's not all I also think the story is boring and too long and it is lacking any kind of a plot. I had to skip chapters and I started reading it twice and I honestly should have left it dnf.It was so boring I did not read the second book and if you knew me I almost never do that
Shadow and bone
Soo pretty much the same as the six of crows but I'm not sure the way pov's were written bc I do not remember the book
It ends with us it's just sooooo overhyped
