The Silent Patient - the ending was so underwhelming and so many more things could have happened instead. It was super predictable !! I wanted to love it but aghh 2 stars for me ⭐️

Five Survive - I had to DNF this book because of the characters. How do you write such bad and dislikable characters?? ( except bby Simon obviously ). ALSO when I skipped to the ending.. i litteraly guessed it from the very beginning. Worst plot twist ever ??? 1 star ⭐️

The Reappearance of Rachel Price - This wasnt as bad but like tell me why the first 2/3 of the book took me two weeks to get through. i was bored out of my mind. The ending tho lowkey gave me chillssss. 3.5 stars for me ⭐️

I thought I would love it since it is recommended to me in every ilona andrews books I read. But it felt flat.. I still have read couple of the books in the series and I will probably read more for some odd reason 🤷

Bambi (danielleleannee) | 65 comments The housemaid is watching by Frieda McFadden! I was so excited for it, but it surprisingly was a little boring compared to the others in the series in my opinion.

Sarah (adayinmymediocrelife) | 64 comments Caraval- the whole series. They were so boring and both FMC's were stupid, obstinate, and whiny. I muddled through the first 2 with hopes of improvement but it never came so I dnf'd the last book about 25% in because I was over it.


Storm The Gremlin Child  | 356 comments Happy Place: the amount of miscommunication and how they were too much of a sissy to tell their friends they broke off their engagement just to not ruin was the week seemed pretty stupid. I ended up DNFing the book

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue: I couldn't remember the time lines and I was a good portion into the book and it was just way too slowed paced. I kept on getting time lines mixed up. DNFed the book aswell


littlefox (not as active) | 62 comments dance of thieves - i finished it and gave it 3 stars but i was so close to DNFing it SO MANY TIMES
the relationship was so far from enemies to lovers, the world-building was boring (tho maybe i should've read pearson's other trilogy first? apparently it's in the same world), and the characters were meh. it's actually the first time i try a book popular on booktok that i didn't give at least 4 stars

kat (kathryn057) | 135 comments Icebreaker, kingdom of the wicked and where the crawdads sing. all big disappointments compared to what I thought I was going to get from them.


💕🌊Charlotte🌊💕 | 11 comments A Good Girls Guide To Murder- I tried reading this and had to DNF because I just could not get into it!
