Book Series I Won't Finish || Reviews & Non Recommendations

Hey Booktube, here are all the book series I won't finish reading! Some I have no hard feelings towards as you'll hear in my reviews... some of them I won't had to any recommendation videos ever!

_____ To support my channel & the kittens _____

_____ MEET THE KITTIES _____
Charlie: All black with no thumbs. He thinks he's spiderman and climbs in the window screens. His favorite snack is wtv book I'm currently reading.
Clawdia: Black and white with a beauty mark. She has thumbs... wouldn't surprise me if she stole them. She's pure chaos but she purrs and cuddles me so it's fine.
Chunky: Black with a white patch on his chest. Has thumbs. Needy, crusty, whiny baby... can't live without him.

As a plus sized woman it always makes me feel safe on your channel when you, a non plus sized woman, call out fatphobia. Thank you 🥺❤
In general, I rarely read more than the first book in a series. I feel like i'm always getting burned for it if I read the rest. A good girls guide to murder, Scythe, Anne of Green Gables.... I wish so much I'd just stopped at book one for these.

Watching Emily will comfort me while I suffer from period pain.

"To complain is to live." Omg I love it. Thriving on complaining (venting) hahaha. I'm giving up on books so much this year. My reading energy is worth spending on something that will give me a good return! I've DNF'd like eight books in 2024 already (and over thirty in 2023). Full steam ahead!!

[martinelanglois]

Congratulations on not torturing yourself to read books you have no interest in!! Very empowering, just like letting go of relationhips that have overstayed their welcome. Bravo! ❤

She who became the sun, I agree with you completely!!! The start I was so into it, and yes I kept going back because I kept getting lost. And I know the scene. That scene was awful . Made it an automatic no no to continuoing

[cynthiafialka]

I DNF’d The Adventures of Amina Al-Sarafi, thought it was so slow. I did like Legendborn and will read Bloodmarked some time this year.

I like the idea of thinking of some books as "it was a standalone for me" even when it's a series. I have Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson on my TBR shelf which I haven't read yet, but I like the idea of perhaps just reading that first book if I feel like it and not feeling obligated to continue even if it's a good book. Series are a big time commitment to read.

Here for all the trope spoilers!! Lay em on me!!

Emily: Spring Cleaning🎉
Me: Yas, you go girl🎉🎉🎉

[supernanify]

I haaaated Before the Coffee Gets Cold. I think it was in my bottom 3 books I read last year. *That* trope was one reason, but also the pacing was just so frustrating. It felt like it could have been 20 pages and the same amount of stuff would have happened.

I really liked Blindsight, but also don't have any interest in picking up Echopraxia. One is enough...

totally me using this video as an excuse to dnf the list of " oh maybe i'll love them at some point" that have been waiting on my shelves for the " some point " for ages now❤🤣

[tanyareed]

I had a Brent Weeks book on my physical TBR that had been there for YEARS (10??), When I watched the video where you read it and said how sexist he was, I unhauled it immediately to a little free library. We get enough of that crap in real life.

I had the same feeling about She who became the Sun. I didn't bother to pick up the sequel, felt too let down by the second half of the first book.

[SolitudeDayys]

Every time Emily mentions the sprinkle of misogyny in old books I remember reading “I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream”. Girlies, if you meet a man and he claims this book as his favorite RUN THE OTHER WAY. I literally cannot fathom how it was published or even enjoyed by It’s been 3 years since i DNFd i and I’m still horrified!

[kimberleyryan]

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED SHE WHO BECAME THE SUN AND HE WHO DROWNED THE WORLD!! Sorry, I just had to scream it. 😄 I respect that it was for a lot of people, I know you’re not the only one that didn’t love it. For some reason it worked for me and I had so many emotions in the second one!!

[lilylambert]

also not continuing fourth wing, I enjoyed it for a good laugh and, but have no plans on continuing the series

[laurenschenck]

Hope you have a wonderful weekend Emily full of sunshine and warmth weather

I loved The StarDust Thief one of my favorite series

"To complain is to live" is so much better than, "When life gives you lemons, make lemonade."
