Lets all of us mention one book or more which we really dislike ( or hate) because it promotes something very toxic, lays out a very obviously wrong narrative. I am not talking about, 'this book was cringe and boring', I am talking about, 'the idea that was promoted in this book could be proved very dangerous if taken seriously.
A book that I genuinely dislike is Ugly love by collen hoover. This book has a male lead who has no sense of respect for the female lead, a female lead who has no sense of self respect and keeps on returning to that emotionally immature boy who cannot for the love of God get over his ex and handle his emotional baggage himself. I have read It ends with us and it starts with us. I disliked them both but my problem with them does not align with the topic of this post, they were not promoting abusive relationships (she does end up getting away from that abusive guy). Never read anything else by that author again, and never will.

i appreciate what this book was trying to do but i was just so uncomfortable the entire time. the entire thing being emails between an adult man and an 11 year old girl made me feel so sick, especially when they were ‘arguing’ it all felt so manipulative (his end) and wrong.
and the fact that kids will read this and maybe try to do the same thing? no.
