  • Why We Finish Bad Books: The Most Frustrating Reads I Couldn't Put Down
    Sep 20 2024

    Ever had a book that frustrated you to no end, yet you just couldn’t stop reading? In this episode, I dive into the books that really tested my patience but, somehow, I finished them all the way through.

    From A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas, where Feyre’s arrogance reached new heights, to the crash-and-burn finale of Divergent, the repetitive chaos of Zodiac Academy, and the wild dynamics of The Bonds That Tie – these books might have annoyed me, but they still had me hooked.

    If you’re into fantasy romance or enjoy hearing about popular books from a critical and humorous perspective, this episode is for you! Spoilers ahead, so proceed with caution!

    🔗 Books Discussed:

    • A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
    • Divergent by Veronica Roth
    • Zodiac Academy by Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti
    • The Bonds That Tie by J. Bree
