Tod auf Madeira: Comissário Torres löst seinen ersten Fall | Tomás Bento

Thank you @Texreader for the tag. Here are my #worstof2021 ðŸ™„ ðŸ˜†

I'm tagging whoever wants to rant a little about some bad books they came along in 2021. Might 2022 be filled with lots of good ones!

The Mists of Avalon | Marion Zimmer Bradley

Once I went and actually looked at my January reads, choosing the #worstof2021 was easy. Mists of Avalon certainly took the cake. I get that people love this book/series, but I just couldn‘t abide the sex with children thing. Dishonourable mentions go to Cunt, The Vagina Bible, and The Penis Book. @Texreader @Butterfinger

Chrissyreadit That‘s sad. I would have hoped for more from nonfiction resources. 3y

GingerAntics @Chrissyreadit there are, they‘re just not the ones you would hope for. There doesn‘t seem to be a good book about the actual parts themselves. Although many of the other choices have a section on the parts so it all works out in the end, I guess. ðŸ¤·ðŸ¼â€â™€ï¸ 3y

Butterfinger Totally agree. I threw out my copy. I didn't know and I appreciated you sharing. 3y

TrishB I read the Bradley in my teens and loved it. I only found out the details of her and her husband later ðŸ˜¢ 3y

GingerAntics @TrishB I want to say I would have liked it without that knowledge, but I know too much of all the crap she screwed up and didn‘t even try to get right. I was annoyed with the book before the fateful chapter that ended it all. 3y

GingerAntics @Butterfinger I have a digital copy. I‘m trying to figure out how to get rid of it. 3y

The Old Drift | Namwali Serpell

I‘m still sad when I think about this book. The premise was good but the execution was a mishmash of genres. When it was just telling a story it was so good. But the attempts at other genres was so bad, making this my #worstof2021. @Butterfinger
