One Star Reviews of Our FAVE Books!

In this delightfully chaotic episode, the trio bravely enters the battlefield of Goodreads: the one-star review section. Armed with strong opinions and absolutely no emotional preparation, they read the most unhinged, dramatic, and deeply personal attacks on their favorite books.In this episode, nothing is safe. The gals dramatically reenact the harshest reviews, spiral over the audacity, and attempt to defend their beloved characters as if they personally know them (because, emotionally, they do).Between gasps, cackling laughter, and mock outrage, they unpack the wildest takes the internet has to offer and reflect on the beautifully subjective chaos of reading. It’s petty. It’s passionate. It’s three best friends slightly losing their minds over strangers’ opinions.Five stars for entertainment. One star for emotional stability.Follow us on TikTok!Follow us on Instagram!Shop our merch: illreadwhatshesreading.comSIGN UP FOR OUR PATREON
