Loved it: The Hunger Games – Catching Fire

on The Hunger Games – Catching Fire
The Hunger Games – Catching Fire is the kind of book that hooks you early if you like its vibe. There are a few scenes that genuinely hit emotionally. The ending resolves fast compared to how much it builds up. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Mixed feelings: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone

on Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone is the kind of book that hooks you early if you like its vibe. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. A couple of sections could have been trimmed without losing anything. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Didn’t work for me: Twilight – Breaking Dawn

on Twilight – Breaking Dawn
I went into Twilight – Breaking Dawn with pretty normal expectations and it surprised me. The ending resolves fast compared to how much it builds up. If you’re on the fence, try a sample — you’ll know quickly.

⚠️ Spoilers: minor plot detail mentioned below. I went into The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo with pretty normal expectations and it surprised me. The ending resolves fast compared to how much it builds up. There’s a specific turning point late in the book that changes the tone hard — that moment will make or break it for you. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Mixed feelings: To Kill a Mockingbird

To Kill a Mockingbird has a strong core idea — the execution mostly works. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. A couple of sections could have been trimmed without losing anything. If you’re on the fence, try a sample — you’ll know quickly.
