Does anyone else feel like a kid waiting for Christmas waiting for the next round of Seasonal Readalongs to come out or do I have a problem? 🙂

Everyone on here always recommends the most amazing books. The ones they loved, the ones that changed them.
But give me a fantasy book or series that you wanted to rip apart- that you only finished out of SPITE
I very much enjoy reading 1-star reviews of books to see if I would hate the book too, or if it would actually be for me. People are more honest about a book if they hated it 😆 (in my opinion)
So give me a fantasy book you hated, and why?!

I've read 110 books this year because I was previously unemployed.
My unemployment has ended!🥳
And I'm too exhausted to read most days. I'll be lucky to get through a book a week🙃
I'm sad, but it's okay. I like my job. I work with really cool people. My bosses are actually decent people. I can get back on my feet because of this. And if it means I can't read as much, that's okay. The trade off is worth it.
I've seen quite a few posts lamenting that others can read so much, feeling defective because they can't. So I want to make visible the transition from one state of being to the other. I'm still going to read as many books as I can. And if it's not as many as before, that's okay. If I only read one book a year, I'm still a reader. It still counts ❤️

We're almost two thirds of the way through the fall readalong, which means we'll get to see the Winter Readalong picks soon, if I understand correctly.
So I'd love to pick your brains - I was wondering, both for the Fall Readalong and for the Dias de los Muertos readalong (or just one of them if you prefer, I don't make the rules)...
how did you like the selections overall?
which books, if any, turned out to be sleeper hits for you that you enjoyed better than you thought you would?
which books, if any, were perhaps sleeper "fails" for you, in that you enjoyed them less than expected?
if you didn't read all the book options: what made you choose the one(s) you ended up reading?
if you read all of them: how would you rank them and how did you enjoy the full package overall?
for those who have been here for a year and more: how did the Fall 2025 readalong compare to the Fall 2024 readalong in your opinion?
any other fun thoughts, questions, observations, tributes to my black cat, hopes, dreams, plans for world domination?
Let's chat 🥰
