The worst thing ever written was a story I wrote using Chat GPT where Harry Potter makes Ron a disgusting sweet and sour dish. Ron complains about it so much everyone calls him Sour Ron. He uses magic to try get rid of the horrible taste in his mouth and accidentally transports himself to Middle Earth. The locals ask him his name and he says Sour Ron since everyone calls him that. The locals mistake it as Sauron. They start to fear him because he builds a magic portkey ring to get himself back to Hogwarts but it doesnt work and he turns into a giant flaming eye.

My last book of 2023 was Central Places by Delia Cai also because it’s about a girl going back to central Illinois for the holidays and I recently moved to central Illinois and thought oh wow this is me. It wasnt nearly as bad as you described Every Summer After, but it was just so odd. *spoilers* the main character leaves her fiancé that she had a great relationship with and randomly starts deteriorating when they get to her hometown… and he also completely changes and I think it was just poor writing not the location change… but anyways she leaves him to be with her high school not even boyfriend but crush… just so odd.

The reason for the next 3 books in the shatter me series was 100 percent monetary. If I recall correctly Tehereh Mafi wanted to only write the first three books and the publishing company was like actually do three more or we will drop you. I could be wrong about this as well but, theres a big gap in publishing between the first three and the last three as well.

This was a fun video to watch and even though I haven't read any of the books, I can understand why you hated them based on your reviews! My worst book of the year was "the Swarm" by Frank Schätzing. This book... I don't even know how to describe it, but you can see this was written by a man. The main character (a succesful scientist who is also a womanizer of course) was highly unlikeable to me, I hated the way the author wrote women - especially the super-ambitious Asian-American soldier with her piercing blue (???) eyes driven by her lust for power and the bitchy grad student whose teeth make her look like a bunny, which we were consistently reminded of - and I found it quite predictable at some point, too. Overall just not a good experience. It was a bummer since I was really excited to read a German novel that made it to international success, but it turned out to be a huge waste of time
