Reading the most popular books of 2024✨ according to goodreads [first 5 star of the year and 1 star]

I think the only other book that I've read in the Sci-Fi category is anniebot and anniebot came in third place and I really enjoyed anniebot as well

in second place came first li winds which I also was not a big fan of this book I gave it two stars

there are moments that I'm like oh wow like the writing is really good right there the rest of it just feels so Bleak and dull and boring and because I'm not connecting with any of the characters it's just so slow and it's so boring

I think I've only tried to read two of her books and I think I dnfed both of them I don't know what it is about Sally Rooney's writing style but sometimes it just doesn't really work for me

I didn't like the writing style in this at all like in the second half oh my God it just got so cheesy and the main character was so incredibly frustrating because she couldn't keep up with like what was happening but I also think that I am going to give this book one star

the god of the Woods by Liz Moore which I actually ended up dnfing last year I wasn't the biggest fan of this one

I ended up really enjoying this like I don't know I'd probably give this four stars I don't think it was the perfect five star book for me for a few different reasons like I think the ending definitely started to lose me a little bit

the winner of the fiction category was actually the wedding people which ended up being one of my favorite books that I read last year

this book is just so beautiful like how could I not give this five stars I already feel like this could be like on my favorites list of 2025
