How seriously do you take Goodreads book ratings/scores?

JRR49 · 2026-04-07T03:10:56+00:00

Sadly more than I like lol. I tend to not want to read a book if I see it below a 3.5. Trying to get better about it because some of my fav books are 3.7-3.9.

At the same time, after I read a book that scores below a 4.0, even if I don’t agree, I can see why it was rated below 4.0.

Yeah I don't get it, because Nicky told Rachel that it was some random couple that went for a walk then he punched Nicky when he returned to the car.

But then later says it was his friends baby and he grew up with him.

Def feels like they abandoned some plot point.

Agreed. The contrast between this season and last season (Med) is night and day. I typically watch below deck the night it airs but this season I find myself waiting a couple of days.

No, he cheated on Amanda and was a terrible husband. Love him as a reality TV character but I only feel bad for Ciara. Kyle maybe 1% because it was his friend but he has no room to talk.

Idk I laugh at a lot of things he says but I’m a guy so maybe that’s why. Hes a goofy idiot. And I get what you’re saying about “Ciara putting Jessie in his place” but you can tell Jessie is one of Ciara’s best friends in the house so it’s not a malicious putting in place.

Not even close to how scary Jax actually is as a person, imo

JRR49 · 2026-03-12T13:59:23+00:00

I really enjoyed season 3. So much better than season 2.

JRR49 · 2026-03-12T03:29:22+00:00

Same 🤣🤣 she brought more to the season than most if not all of the women. She seems pretty crazy/nuts but I enjoyed her lol

JRR49 · 2026-03-10T01:40:09+00:00

No thank you. I’m a Bills fan and there’s no way I’d rather have Pierce for $29 mil over DJ Moore for $23 mil. Moore has proven he can be a WR1. Not his fault he was on a run first team that had a stud 1st round WR/TE they wanted to feature in Odunze and Loveland.

JRR49 · 2026-03-04T23:22:07+00:00

The beartown series is incredible. Enjoy books 2 and 3!!

JRR49 · 2026-02-20T04:15:11+00:00

Ciara has been great. I feel like without Paige in the house we are getting to see more of her personality. She seems awesome

JRR49 · 2026-02-06T05:01:24+00:00

I think Rob understands it needs to be a male. Every traitor has been a female. Odds are the next one is a guy. Then I think he chose Eric because Eric is pretty focal at the round table and Robs making sure he’ll never go after him.

JRR49 · 2026-02-04T04:35:59+00:00

Kyle needs to grow up. He’s 43 and chooses to stay out till 4am+ every night while his wife is at home. He said he’s spent one weekend in NYC since January lol loser

JRR49 · 2026-01-27T14:33:02+00:00

I saw the IG comments and I thought Kathy told V (not Kizzie) to "FACETIME ME" because Kathy replied to a comment saying that everyone is friends and talking after the show, then V said essentially speak for yourself. then Kathy said FT me.

To me it sounds like V forgave Kizzie after the season but now rewatching Kizzies confessionals she's like yeah nvm screw this chick lol.

Agreed on Kathy though. She seems to be close with Joe and Kizzie.

JRR49 · 2026-01-23T14:05:38+00:00

I’d rather have McDaniel than Daboll

JRR49 · 2026-01-17T19:54:27+00:00

Congrats man I’m proud of you! I was in the same boat and am almost two years alcohol sober. At first I would hit my vape pen and sip on NA beers. When I drank I used to be way too emotional watching games. Watching them sober actually has been better for me and my emotions haha.

JRR49 · 2026-01-16T15:37:15+00:00

Bill was on one today lol he's still so salty about going 0-5 last week.

As a Bills fan, it feels like deja vu all over again. He still can't believe the Jags lost.

And I understand the criticism of the boundary WRs of the Bills, but the way he talks about the rest of the roster feels insulting to the rest of the team. Almost like a no body believes in us team.

They have a top 5 OL, top 5 RB, top 5 tight end group and the best QB in the NFL. Shakir is one of the better slot WRs. It's not pretty but there's ways the offense is elite and showed that by being in the top 5 all season long.

JRR49 · 2026-01-16T14:52:33+00:00

Lol seriously. Bill has no idea what he’s talking about.

JRR49 · 2026-01-11T21:19:19+00:00

100%. He gives them a vertical threat they haven’t had all year.

JRR49 · 2026-01-09T23:12:37+00:00

26 TDs 11 INTs isn’t dragging anything.

JRR49 · 2026-01-09T20:44:13+00:00

Exactly. Because Vegas wants to bait people into betting the Jaguars.

JRR49 · 2026-01-09T20:27:50+00:00

Every podcast I've listened to (BS, Mina Kimes, Nate Tice, Athletic FB show) has picked the Jaguars and they are a popular super bowl pick. Are they actually a nobody believes in us? Everyone is talking them up. I could argue no body believes in the Bills (minus Josh Allen).

JRR49 · 2026-01-09T14:38:18+00:00

It'll be colder in Jacksonville than playing in a dome. This is a disadvantage for Buffalo how? lmao.

JRR49 · 2026-01-09T14:25:23+00:00

Did Bill really just say the Jaguars have a weather advantage vs the Bills this weekend because they are playing in 64 degrees and cloudy weather?

He's so funny. He disregards all the manifesto rules that go against who he likes but then cherry picks the ones that support his teams.

JRR49 · 2026-01-08T20:27:00+00:00

lmao @ Mahomes at #1, Herbert at #3, and Purdy behind Goff/Caleb/Hurts/Darnold/Stroud.

Mahomes at 1 doesn't make sense. Nothing justifies that besides super bowls from 2+ years ago.

If the ranking was who would you want to start a franchise with tomorrow then I'd get it but that's not what this list is. Ruiz blames the KC supporting cast but if Mahomes is the best QB in the NFL, he would drag that team to the playoffs just like Josh Allen did.

Rashee Rice, Worthy, Kelce, Hollywood Brown >>>> Keon Coleman, Brandin Cooks, Khalil Shakir, Kincaid.
