For some reason I find Jules Verne pretty dark and creepy and reading his books makes me feel uncomfortable. Also Paulo Coelho

I've just never understood the hype. I've always thought Harry Potter was over-blown, and just couldn't finish it.

Me neither!ReviewerDiksha wrote: ↑19 Aug 2017, 09:31 Paulo Cohelo. Everyone around me just loved the Alchemist. And everyone was like it the best book ever and all. And when I read that book. Disappointed. It has been overhyped so much! I just dont understand why?
It’s one of the worst books I’ve ever read, it’s so cliche and boring and has an air of faux depth and humility! It’s got no charm and rhythm. so so so bad

OH MY GOD, ACOTAR - that series is so toxic! However I did finish reading all of TOG and it was way better than ACOTAR. Still, her loyal fanbase calls her a feminist writer and I can't for the heck of it understand how!?Natalie394 wrote: ↑05 Jan 2017, 12:12 Sarah J Maas. I couldn't get into her Throne of Glass series and really didn't enjoy A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Henry James is sort of a writer's writer. His stories are not so different from anyone else of that period; it's the way he tells them. He can write a sentence that is an entire page long, perfectly understandable, and with perfect grammar. Awesome!
