5 Books Everyone Loves That I Regret Reading

So, overall, again, I just ended up giving it a three average star rating, and unfortunately for me, the concept and the ending was way more impressive than the moment-to-moment reading experience, and that was like at least 10 hours of me reading.

We were literally crawling knees to chest like trying to get to the end of the story because it was so painfully boring.

But because I wasn't invested in the story or these characters, the tension points didn't really have the same impact on me as it would have if maybe I went in with a clean perspective.

And by the end of the book, I didn't have as much of an emotional connection to him or his story, and more I was just like excited to be done with the book instead.

This could have honestly been a really powerful essay, but it didn't need to be an entire book because the ideas and reflections didn't evolve enough to hold my attention.

It wasn't just character-driven, but it was also atmospheric, it was also very plot-heavy, it was a heist, it was a mystery, it was a love story.
