  I was tagged to do this by @books.below.stars over on my Instagram. I will be posting my answers here too. The prompts are based on songs on Olivia Rodrigo's GUTS Album. As always, feel free to do this tag if you see it! 1. all american b*tch (an underrated book) The Witch's Boy by Kelly Barnhill 2. bad idea right (a book you missed sleep for) None. I always read during the day. I care about sleeping enough. 😉 3. vampire (a book that broke you) Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech 4. lacy (a book with an envious character) The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle (character in question is Prince Lir) 5. ballad of a homeschooled girl (a book that you like that other people don't) Well, the book is more divided than widely disliked, but I'll have to go with Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson. 6. logical (a book with a red flag love interest) Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier (the character in question is Maxim de Winter) 7. get him back! (A book you have mixed feelings for) Nick...

Warning: Potentially unpopular opinions ahead. Unfortunately, yes, we are going to be a little negative today. These are the worst books I read so far this year. I rated these either 3 stars or lower. Well, this particular list is all 3 stars .  These are not books I DNF (aka 0 stars). That will be the next post. The books you see here are all books I read from beginning to end. I do not personally recommend them, but I not discouraging you from checking them out either.

What disappointing books have you read so far?

Oh boy...how am I gonna talk about this... Nick and Charlie by Alice Oseman is a novella of the characters Charlie Spring and Nick Nelson whom we all know and love from Heartstopper. This novella is set in Charlie's second to last year of high school and Nick's last year before going to university. The gist is that Charlie worries that he and Nick won't be able to maintain a long-distance relationship, and that's what kicks off the conflict for the story. There is not much to say about this book because it is a novella so the story is short and is everything is resolved pretty quickly. Nick and Charlie have an argument and avoid each other for a while but then they get back together really sweetly towards the end. Pretty predictable.  To be honest, there were a lot of things about this novella I didn't like. I found Charlie in particular to be a lot more short tempered and whinier here compared to his graphic novel counterpart. I also felt very uncomfortable readin...
