    The Masses Said It Was Amazing…So Why Was I Fighting for My Life???

    In the age of social media, it’s way too easy to grab a book just because everyone’s hyping it up. And honestly…sometimes I’ve ended up groaning more than reading.

    Case in point: the book club I’m in’s last pick, Circe by Madeline Miller. Every single one of us had it on our TBR, yet we were fighting for our lives to get through it. Painful. Agonizing. Why did we do this to ourselves? Our text thread was basically a war zone of “are you struggling too?” I mean, half of us DNF’d, the rest forced our way to the end out of sheer stubbornness. Because…it had to get good, right?

    So now I’m curious…be honest: what “masterpiece” did you force-read and still just…didn’t vibe with? Spill the tea. And why???

    For our book club, we all figured we’re about the yearning, and spice life, and Circe was just out of our genre palate…🫣😬

    Yall it’s taken be a bit to get into this, I wasn’t convinced at the start but man am I having the time of my life ✋🤭

    Is it glaringly obvious this book was written over a decade ago? Yes. But if you look past some of the 2014 cliches and expressions it’s fine

    I think Garrett is a really sweet MMC, I truly wasn’t expecting him to be at the start and I’m pleasantly surprised.

    I’m fully sat 🤭
