The two stars are for the writing style, which was exceptionally soothing and easy to get through but the plot was so bad. I'm sorry, i think it could've been better, there was nothing exciting, or keeping me on the edge. The protagonist seemed so dull, as if she is being forced to portray this character. Even in the last scene when suzanne kicks her out of the car, i would've preferred that she got involved in it so that at least there was some excitement?
sobbed while reading this in physics class
but the plot twist or the tragic twist might I say was not unexpected as I once flipped through the book in a bookstore and spoiled myself so
This was my first horror (and my only so far I think) novel and it indeed terrified me. I had heard so many good things about this and how this is the only story that seems to scare people. I heard equal praising of the movie but it felt like a low budget thriller if anything.
Fun fact: i had a white bathtub with white curtains in my bathroom, and after reading “the scene” I had kept the curtains open at ALL times
my absolute favorite book in the series. good to know that the death of dumbledore can still bring tears to my eyes. the first time I read it i cried to the point i became sick and had a fever. sirius's death was much difficult to accept because i skimmed through the chapter and skipped the scene altogether, i couldnt bear reading harry's pain or wanting to accept that hes dead. Its one of the deaths i cant forgive jk rowling for
This is the book that awakened the reader in me once more. I absolutely devoured, cried, sobbed and frowned with this book but I absolutely loved it too. It's my favorite classic, it is also my only read Kafka book and I have a feeling it will stay that way.
I still think about this book more often than not.
the way i anticipated this book because it was for the first time i realized i can read smut on printed paper but also because my ex's ex was grossly into it and I wanted to know what's it about.
this is the worst type of love story you can think of. in more or less words, what the book is suggesting is that a woman can change the man and shape him into what she wants him to be which is bullshit. no man ever changes unless he wants to. even though the revelation happened in the second book but christian grey was damaged, broken and needed healing and love. I found Ana to be ridiculously stupid at moments, but her constant crying about wanting to change Christian was getting annoying.
I liked the book from his point of view as it had made more sense.
to the people who have given this 4 or 5 stars please tell me what were u on to give this such high rating?
this felt to me something i would pick up on wattpad on a school night at the age of 12. the writing was terrible, it felt like a beginner trying to write a story. the plot was predictable and the dialogues were downright cringey. this was the most insufferable book i have ever read, and i am just simply wondering what were the publishers thinking when they put this out there? not only did that but the editor did this author very extremely dirty.
there was no chemistry, not between the mc and her boyfriend or with boyfriend's boss. the story didn't make sense and the love interest was the most bland man I have ever come across
I don't remember much about what happened in this book but it does remind me of a very distinctive time of my life that I perhaps don't want to ever live again
this was gifted to me for my birthday so many years ago and i finished it in three days. I originally gave it 5 stars, but after some realizations about the plot, the actions of some characters and how long the story goes on, I think it should reduced to 3 stars.
This was my very first mystery
