The WORST Books of 2022!! 😬 | DNFs, disappointments, and bad reads

this book is really weird so acts of service by Lillian Fishman this was super hyped up but I did not really care for it I just felt confused and I think this is a book that I just kept reading out of sheer like curiosity

an emotion of great Delight by tahara Mafi it is a very heavy story it's a very heavy and emotional story but what bugs me the most was I felt like there wasn't much happening and it like ended in the middle of a sentence

I also dnf'd buy a charm and a curse by Jamie questel this is another book that I had for quite a while it's like a circusy read but I just found that the concept for it I was not loving

I can see it being a very important read but for me just was not working and also the anxieties of the character were like making me super anxious

another controversial one confessed by Colleen Hoover was not a fan of Colleen Hoover I found this one was way too corny it felt really silly

I also was slightly disappointed by cytonic by Brandon Sanderson once again I liked this one but I had enjoyed Skyward so much this one I just felt like was a lot of Meandering around and not a lot actually happening in this story

I also really unfortunately dnf'd for all time by Shanna miles I was so excited for this book I thought it sounded incredible but it just wasn't working for me I was having a really hard time with the writing and kind of understanding and getting into the story

also devastatingly I was let down by four aunties and a wedding by Jessie Q sutonto I think part of it is that like it was two ridiculous for me it frustrated me I was mad I was irritated

I wasn't really a huge fan of lore Olympus by Rachel Smith I didn't find a lot happened I wasn't the biggest fan of the art style it just felt like it didn't really go anywhere

Once Upon A Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber super like super excited for this one right did not end up liking it all that much it sounded so good but it just wasn't as good as I wanted it to be it missed the Mark

the last dnf is Royal Holiday by Jasmine Glory I just didn't really like the writing I do have other books by her so I'm still going to like give them a chance this one I just found the writing was so like so much telling not enough showing and it just jumped right into the story and I was just really confused

Set On You by Amy Lee was also a letdown for me there was like PDA that I was not fond of at all and I felt like there was like they kept on meeting each other I didn't really feel the chemistry it was just fine

I also was kind of disappointed by Sister the Bollywood bride by nandini bajpai this book just like it was a lot of like I'm doing this now I'm doing this it was very monotonous it just felt kind of boring

I also had been so excited for the bones of room by Sarah Brawley I found it to be kind of a boring story I think I was in love with the idea more than I was the execution

I also actually dnf'd the Hawthorne Legacy by Jennifer Lynn Barnes this is the sequel to The what's the first one called The Inheritance games and I really liked the inheritance games but I just found myself when I was reading this when I was like I really just am not interested in this

I also dnf'd the holiday switch by Tiff Marcelo I just was not feeling this one I found it very corny like it kind of read like it was a middle grade novel more so

the project by Courtney Summers unfortunately was a Miss for me it's about cults and it just was a very frustrating read with the way that the story ended up going

the Spanish love deception by Elena armez was a total Miss for me I thought it was way longer than it had to be it's just a very like unnecessarily long story

this was just a very confusing read for me it's a historical fiction and it's dealing with like ghosts at the same time I don't know I had heard really good things about it but honestly it just was not it for me unfortunately

this year had picked up this time tomorrow by Emma a Straub this also has a time travel aspect to it but it's kind of a story that once again felt like it did not go anywhere it felt incomplete the ending just seemed really abrupt and sudden

Tokyo Dreaming by Miko Jean unfortunately was a massive disappointment for me I read Tokyo ever after last year it must have been and I loved it was so cute and sweet and I just fell in love with that story but Tokyo dreaming I don't know what it was but it just didn't have like the charm that first book did

I also did enjoy but was mildly disappointed by tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow by Gabrielle zevin I would like to reiterate I liked this book but this book was so hyped up that I was expecting to be completely blown away and because of the hype I was a little bit let down
