/r/BadReads
Because sometimes: a book review says more about the reviewer than it does about the book. r/BadReads is a showcase of the most unhelpful book reviews from all over the internet: reviews that are shallow, vapid, vacuous or otherwise totally missing the point. Parody/satirical and tongue-in-cheek reviews are also welcome.

Hello everybody! My name is Sofia, and I'm doing a bachelor's in Audiovisual and Multimedia, for our "User psychology" class, my group decided to do a case study about Goodreads (since we are all book lovers and use the app). It would really mean a lot to us if yall could help out by answering our questionnaire, I swear it's really simple, anyway here's the link: https://forms.gle/3TyVUFRxivveeaXn6

I'm sure the Bookclub gals would agree with Ainsley
Surely, a book with 139864 characters and a book about only struggle bus is deserving of her precious 1 star review. So insightful! Thank you Ainsley for opening our eyes. The Booker Prize judges must be shit for announcing this as the winner, what a pity.
