  • Books to never read

    Sometimes I trust reviews but other times I’m a bit skeptical and wonder if I should take the risk of reading a low-rated book. Now I want you guys to honestly give me the worst and possibly overrated book that I should avoid truthfully. If you don’t have specific recs just give me an author that I should never read!! šŸ’žšŸ’ž

  • Looking for Romance/RomCom lovers!!

    Looking for people to follow and chat with that read a lot of romance and romcom books! I see loads of people pop up and everyone's really friendly but not seeing anyone with more than 30% overlap on the books I read. I see quite a lot of lists being made about books with serious topics and I am so happy they exist but I use reading as a coping strategy for my anxiety so try to only read romcom books that feel safe and predictable. Does this relate to some people!! Always looking for more connections ā¤ļø

  • Disappointments!

    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*** šŸ˜’. And there was no plot to speak of. I've never felt so drained after reading a book and so so so very disappointed.
