Hey there everyone! I finished reading Saramago’s ‘Blindness’ a while ago and… I have to admit that I had to push myself through to finish it, much to the bafflement of many people who consider it a ‘masterpiece’. When I wrote its review, I pointed out how the written style was blocky and nearly a headache to read due to the lack of proper punctuation, paragraphs and so on.

But now I’m sort of curious, what sort of book you thought was ‘overrated’ and why?

    Where The Crawdads Sing. So many people recommended it to me so I started it and it just got increasingly worse as I progressed through the book. I read the whole thing. Had no idea the ending could make it even worse haha
