I went through several of the books I‘ve read with the lowest average ratings on Goodreads. You can find out what they are and how I feel about them here: https://youtu.be/Fg4PMRKTZac

EadieB @Butterflyamore That was an interesting thing to do. I‘ll have to check my Goodreads read list. I think the only book I read was A Separate Peace. I gave it 4 stars here‘s my review: 5y
EadieB A classic that young and old can relate to. Gene and Phineas attend a boarding school in New England during WWII and become friends. Gene betrays Phineas out of jealousy and rivalry. Years later Gene is still trying to forgive himself as he recognizes the evil of the dark side of adolescence and the consequences of his jealousy. Book teaches a lesson about how boys can become both rivals and intimate friends but need to be wary of each other. 5y
abookishbutterfly @EadieB So true! Great review! I am honestly surprised that it has such a low average rating. I‘ll need to read through some of the negative reviews at some point. I suspect that I‘ll get even more out of the book now then I did the first two times I read it so I‘m looking forward to a future reread. 5y
