Heeello everyone,

What's one book for you that was an unbelievable letdown? I'm talking soul-crushing, frustrating, want-to-throw-the-book-across-the-room vibe.

Also, absolutely no judgement here!

Also also, spoilers (just in case)

I'll go first ~ The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd

I love mystery and I love maps (I even make maps for fun) and this book combined the two, with magic, and it had such a promising start as well. Until....for 80% of it, there was nothing but all exposition and treating the main character as if she were ten years old. And the 'love interest' was a d*** 😒. And there was no plot to speak of. I've never felt so drained after reading a book and so so so very disappointed.

Hey all! So I’ve been wondering this for a while: are Sarah J. Maas books worth the read? I’ve seen a lot of people on here and on Booktube rave about her stuff, but with the controversy surrounding her and my pickiness with the fantasy genre, I’m not sure if I’ll actually like her books. Maybe I just have book FOMO idk 😭😭 What are yalls thoughts?

Recs for books with yearning? Doesn’t necessarily need to be romance focused overall (I don’t usually read just romance books anyway tbh), but does anyone have any good fantasy/scifi/litfic books with just some really good yearning?

So far, I'm hating Warner so much, I just want to punch him. I've read some spoilers online and I really don't get how people could love him? Guys???? Hello?????

I have a soft spot for anything related to ER/doctors/hospital as location, so very interested to read this (in addition to the obvious romance factor and risk of getting my feelings hurt😭)

so, for transparency, i’m autistic. that being said i’ve never once felt connected to an FMC ever in my life. idk what it is about jude that makes me feel like i understand & connect with her but i just do. it’s such a strange experience since i’ve read hundreds of books in my life and never felt like i could say ah, this one is for me!!

any other autistic gals / persons feel this way?? <3
