More of My Lowest Rated Reads #3

More of My Lowest Rated Reads #3

September 3, 2020 Posted by angelreads Discussions 1 Comment

I also have fun doing posts like this and I thought it would be great to do another post. You can check out my previous posts like this here and here. 

So today I’m sharing more of my lowest-rated reads. From romance to young adult and more. Like always these are in no order. 

Pursued by the Rake (Season of Scandal #1) by Mary Lancaster: This was a DNF for me. I was looking forward to this one, but right from the start, I knew it wasn’t going to be for me. I read about 25% and I had no idea what was happening. It was just so confusing. The characters also felt very bland for me and I wasn’t able to get connect with them at all. 

The Royal Trade (A Billionaire Prince Romance #1) by Erin Hayes: I got this one when I wanted to read more royal romances and it was free. I shouldn’t have read it. It was just not for me at all. I didn’t like the romacne or the characters. The plot was okayish. But nothing great. 

Dark Secret (Darkhaven Saga #1) by Danielle Rose: This is a recent addition to this list. I had no idea what was happening half the time add to that everything was happening at super speed. It’s a short book and it felt like everything was being rushed to fit in. 

Lyric’s Accidental Mate (Iron Wolves MC #1) by Elle Boon: I picked this one up when I was in the mood for some Shapeshifter romance – and it was a bad discussion. I just didn’t enjoy it at all. In saying that it does have a higher rating on Goodreads so it could have just been me.

Cheater (Curious Liaisons #1) by Rachel Van Dyken: Again this is one where I feel different to other readers. I do want to give Rachel Van Dyken another try, but this one wasn’t for me. I didn’t like the plot, or the romance, or even the characters. 

Into Your Arms (Squad Stories #1) by Chelsea M. Cameron: This is another one that I wanted to love, but I just didn’t hit it off with it. It sounds like it’s going to be fantastic, but in the end, it was eh. 

The Bad Boy Bargain (Suttonville Sentinels #1) by Kendra C. Highley: On paper, this seems like the book for me. It has everything that I love. But it was way too cheesy for me. It was tropey but in a bad way. Like everything was just thrown in. 

And that is it for this post, those are more of my lowest-rated reads! What are some of your lowest rated reads? Do we share any that is the same? Did you like any of the books on my list? Let’s Chat!

    I hate to DNF books, but sometimes it just has to be done for my sanity! LOL! This is a fun post! One of the first books I let myself DNF is Donna Tartt’s The Secret History. I observe that tons of people really enjoyed the book, but I just don’t understand…Anyhow, happy reading!

I had such a great time reading this book. I didn’ I had such a great time reading this book. I didn’t know what to expect, but at the same time it was exactly what I wanted.

Driven is an entertaining, suspenseful new adult romance debut that has a second chance romance, is brothers best friend and has fast cars. 

It’s one of those books that is perfect for those looking for something that they won’t want to put down, leave them second guessing and wanting more. 

It’s full of second changes, finding yourself and falling for the one person that is forbidden. 

This is all such a great debut novel that makes me want to read more from Emma J Warrender.
