I read acotar before knowing it was hyped and enjoyed it. It was a fun read and then I set it aside. I've seen been drowning in reactions of "best books I've ever read!" And I think these reviews are from people who maybe haven't read a lot of adult fantasy novels. Anyone who has read ACOTAR or something from Mercedes Lackey or Brandon Sanderson just knows it can't compare. But just have fun with books!
"If Gossip Girl was a book series", it's based on one! Don't read it, was my favourite when I was an early teenager in the early 2000s and that's all you need to know about it! Except maybe for "Gossip Girl: Psycho Killer", which is the first novel re-imagined as a horror slasher by the same author
you didn’t like Powerless too? Omg, I never find people who dislike that book. My big issue was that it’s advertised as enemies to lovers when it’s not that at all, and feels really insta attraction based, especially from Kai
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo destroyed my existence in the greatest way. 6/5 stars😭💜 (I also love Lisa Jewell. I see how some of the darker elements of her writing could garner some criticism, but I appreciate her writing so much. Within the darker elements of the stories tend to be some genuine characterization that I can't put down)
@@angelikascorner You’re not missing out. Like I said it’s over hyped. Besides the bad writing. The author doesn’t have any original ideas you haven’t read in other sci-fi fantasy novels. This particular book seemed to borrow ideas from 2 other books if not more.
If you like Every Summer After you’ll LOVE Meet Me at the Lake. It’s the best Carly Fortune. I agreed with literally everything you said and I think you’d love it. Also the Part of Your World trilogy by Abby Jimenez. Scratched the Emily Henry itch for sure cause she’s my favorite.
Booktube as it is now has been swaying me to maybe buy some books that you have now saved me from touching! Plus a couple I’ve been sitting on too long and should open. I thank you 🙏🏼 ❤
I dunno if booktok books are any worse that the supermarket chart books of the past (I've bought some pretty bad books in supermarkets that are apparently best sellers)
I honestly really like Riley Sagers books and I dnfd The House Across the Lake. Def his worst book so far and I've read all of them but two. His characters are not all "crazy" is really often clever women who are getting gaslighted by everyone around them but end up being right, which feels very accurate to reality
I don’t understand the hype for Beach Read. At least Fourth Wing and ACOTAR are fun (specifically ACOMAF). Beach read felt like false advertising to me. Same with It Ends with Us. They should have both been classified and marketed as Women’s fiction instead of romance.
LA is an instant buy author for me...I'll never reread The Fine Print. Idk what she was thinking with that tbh. The other two books were so much better and the Lakefront Billionaires series is chef's kiss. The only other book I don't like by her is Collided bc the FMC is such an "I'm not like other girls bc I like star wars, not disney princesses" pick me but I'm forcing myself to not skip it when I reread the Dirty Air series next month
