BehoovedM. Stevenson
Not a fan

Behooved by M. Stevenson is one of the worst books that I've read. I'm convinced it was written by AI. It was goofy.

Forget Me NotJulie Soto
Loved it

It had been two years and seven months since I had a five-st star contemporary romance and then Forget Me Not arrived in my life and I'm so happy that it did.

Another one just not for me is Radiance by Grace Draven. This is a fantasy romance that just didn't deliver in the plot or the relationship in a way that I liked. The way that these characters interacted was very annoying.

TantrumRachel Eve Moulton
Not a fan

Tantrum by Rachel Eve Molton. , it's about a demon baby. I think it had a lot of good intent behind it, but it was too confrontational. It was just like arguing for hundreds of pages and it wasn't very interesting.

The CompoundAisling Rawle
Loved it

In the second spot is The Compound. I always tell you when I love a book that doesn't necessarily mean it's a recommendation. I was just so fascinated by how we were exploring what humans will do when put in this situation.

The StandStephen King
Loved it

and so I reread the stand because it is inspired by the stand. This remained a five-st star read since the last time I read it which was, you know, two decades ago.

Walking PracticeDolki Min
Loved it

And then, I guess my number one favorite was Walking Practice by Dolki Min, translated by Victoria Codle. This is a disgusting sci-fi horror.

We Love You, BunnyMona Awad
Not a fan

We have We Love You Bunny by Mona Aad. This was a seemingly neverending sequel prequel to Bunny and how this cult of girls originally met and manifested their powers. It was just not for me.

When Javi Dumped MariMia Sosa
Not a fan

when Javi dumped Mari by Mia Sosa, so sad that this didn't work for me, but these characters had absolutely zero chemistry and I've loved a book by this author before, so I was convinced this was going to be a favorite.
