I'm supposed to be team Jade, but I just can't. She's as selfish as her father. Maybe I'm too old for this kind of books.

I don't feel the pull between Jade and Florence, author. Your story is much more interesting than the relationship 🤣

If you're someone who DNFs books, what's one of the silliest or pettiest reasons you've stopped reading? I'll go first with some of mine: - The author kept repeating the same words/phrase, I couldn't stop noticing it and after 4 chapters I'd had enough - The MMC had the same name as an ex and I wasn't about to read a whole book where he gets a happy ending - They didn't use any punctuation marks at all Please tell me I'm not the only one who abandons books that should be interesting to me for ridiculous reasons?

Ahh booktok, so controversial. But we love it anyways hehe. Because I thrive on highly opinionated discussion, please don't hold back! (BUT, because we are all kind, educated readers, let's not be hateful towards people who have different opinions than we do ;) That being said, I'll go first: *inhales slowly* Fourth Wing is meh and Iron flame was almost impossible to get through... the hype, I just don't understand it!! Please tell me I'm not the only one.
Anyajulchen commented on Anyajulchen's review of The Maidens
I'm never reading this author again. Why he's sells so many mediocre books? I don't understand. The stories are amazing in paper, then you enter to the gist of the work. The writing is addictive, but the characters are parodies of themselves, the "plot" points get resolved most in a line and the endings are always full of twist that come out of nowhere, just for shock. Also, what's the obsession of the author of creating "smart" protagonists without letting them make smart decisions? I swear Mariana was dumb as bricks. And why he never fleshes the true bad guys or the general cast? You don't even get to know the Maidens, even if they are falling like flies at every few chapters! Also, the romance comes literally out of nowhere. There's no feeling, no chemistry, no nothing. The male interest is lamer than water. Not recommended. Go and read something else. Any other dark academy is better.

BABY, you're too American! You lack respect for the supernatural. This is why you don't mess around!

Josh and Fred should have their own separate book. The sexual tension between them is too much
Anyajulchen wrote a review...
After an hour of doing chores, I'm ready to tackle this review. First, I don't understand why people recommend this book after the three usual. To understand, follow and like the story you need to know about Chinese culture and general Buddhism. Also, you have to have patience because the romance is not the center of the story. It's the investigation. Second, the themes are so heavy. I didn't realized how much until the thing with the little girl. Like, it was so explicit I almos dropped the book. And that's not the most horrid part haha. I should've been prepared because of the novel's public. It's not bad, I most say, the way it's handled goes perfectly with the general theme of the story, which is the eight human's sufferings. Third, the couple is toxic in an unique way. They're both really bad people, how did or do bad things. So, between eachother, is as passionate as toxic. Don't expect fluffiness.
