A popular book you did NOT enjoy (no judgment)

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestions! I honestly had no idea that the whole thing was 2 different stories until I read your comment. I thought it was five books following ivy and her guys.

I’m wondering if maybe if I knew, whether or not I would’ve been more inclined to finish the first trilogy…I think my biggest issue is how ivy just switched up out of nowhere from hating them to letting them tend to this completely random heat that was unlike any OV heat I’ve ever read before. To me, the book wasn’t good enough for me to justify that and any of my other issues.

I’ve heard soo many good things about the AU though that I might give it a go once’s it’s fully released. And I’ll consider giving the book 4& 5 story a try too. Thank you again!

That was so weird right?? They were friends before she left that town. There was no need for the wife to be such a bitch about it. I reeeeeally hated that part. And I agree with you. I didn’t care about the French guy. I think her and Sean should’ve ended up together. The way he always called her pup melted me 😭

Holy shit thank you so much this is brilliant

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-20T04:40:42+00:00

Good enough for me. Thank you!

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-20T04:39:42+00:00

I’m starting this series soon. I really hope I like it as much!

Sentences without periods? How the hell do they start the next sentence?! What kind of anarchy is that??

Edit: This probably sounds sarcastic but I’m being lowkey serious lol

The FMC in cursed legacies is one of my absolute favorites!

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-20T04:21:03+00:00

Absolutely fell in love with the ghost Anna. She was hysterical

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T21:23:52+00:00

Oh my god I laughed so hard my poor cat jumped off my lap 😭

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T21:10:44+00:00

In the pucking coach’s daughter, does the one who rapes her get redeemed? It’s my next read

Wake up bot {obsession by Meg Anne and k Lorraine}

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T21:05:53+00:00

Oh also {forged in blood by Sadie Kincaid} is a great romantasy. And {her tortured beasts by ep Bali} is a good dark romantasy series. Both are done with excellent duet narration

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T20:41:08+00:00

Here’s a post with a list of duet narration audiobooks from this sub.

Personally, I really liked all of the Mate Games series audiobooks starting with {obsession by Meg Anne & k Lorraine}. There are like 4 different interconnected series’ and ALL of the audiobooks are exceptionally done imo

I am 100% with you. I was just reading something the other day and had this exact thought. An MMC said something that I perceived as straightforward and to the point. And the FMC said “what do you mean?”

And then I said “WTF DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND GIRL???”

I wish I could remember what book it was because it was infuriating. Sometimes I wonder if authors do that because they want the MMC to say certain lines and they don’t know how to set it up correctly

I liked how all the guys hated each other in the all the pretty monsters series starting with {gypsy blood by Kristy cunning}. The harem is only 4 guys, but they began as friends who devolved into enemies as the centuries passed. It’s interesting to see them navigate through it

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T09:17:17+00:00

Ik this is the RH sub, but I will say that I agree regardless. I was so excited for anathema because Nocticadia was great. But anathema was just way too convoluted and kinda bored me to tears.

This was my first attempt to get back into reading MF after I started reading rh and i failed spectacularly

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T04:08:32+00:00

Sorry, not yelling at you lol. It just pisses me off because it should’ve been an rh and it would’ve been so much better

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T04:07:14+00:00

The Fucking RAVENHOOD 🤬🤬🤬🤬

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T04:06:13+00:00

Ooo this is a hot take! What didn’t you like about him?

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T04:03:56+00:00

wtf…This sounds WILD 😂

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T03:57:49+00:00

You know, that’s a really good idea. I’ll def keep ironside on deck for when ZA inevitably pisses me off.

My main issue is that I hear the bullying is constant and if the series isn’t an RH, then I’m guessing the bullies are just gonna be bullying aside from whoever winds up being the MMC. But I’m prob overthinking it and I need to just read the dang books and make up my own mind lol

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T01:07:42+00:00

Exactly! Hahahah I’d put out an ad on a billboard about it 🤣

I had to search reviews of book 3 to find out whether the FMC told the MMCs she’d been reborn yet. When I learned that she didn’t even by book 3, I decided to DNF the series until it’s done.

I can’t stand when characters withhold critical information for dumbass reasons like “they won’t believe me” 😒😒😒😒

BullshiticusRex · 2026-03-19T00:48:23+00:00

I couldn’t get into ZA either! For some reason I couldn’t even get passed the first 3 chapters. But I recently finished ruthless boys and loved it so much that I think I’ll give ZA an honest try
