Today I'm joined by the wonderful Alizee to play a game where she tries to guess the book based on the 1 star reviews I provide. If you want to play along, leave your guesses down in the comments!

Alchemised by SenLinYu is a Romance Fantasy novel which recently won the 2026 British Book Award for Best Sci Fi / Fantasy Book, beating legends like R.F. Kuang and Joe Abercrombie. Today I ask "HOW?!?!?!!?" as I dive deep into this absolute misogynistic mess and pick apart Part One of this 1,000+ page novel which unsurprisingly started off as, equally harmful, Harry Potter Fan Fiction....

Today I'm reviewing the cringe-inducing mess that is 'Trigger Warning' by William W. Johnstone and it's BAD. This is the most laughably terrible book I've read in a long time but it's also the most fun I've had reviewing a bad book in years. Come along for the (very bumpy) ride!

Today we're responding to episode 3 of Morgan (from Paul and Morgan) and Carl's Podcast, Unbuckled, which may be the worst yet.

A little while ago the internet was full of reports of 62 million men being part of a 'r*pe academy', however this isn't exactly true. Today I'm here to correct the misinformation while also highlighting the important parts of this very worrying situation.

Today we're reviewing Cassandra Khaw's book 'Nothing But Blackened Teeth' - a horror book with SO MUCH POTENTIAL that just left me screaming at annoying, petty characters, poor dialogue and complex language for the sake of appearing complex.

Hi all, today I'm reviewing the new novel 'Yesteryear' by Caro Claire Burke and going in-depth to tell you all what I think about it - everything I loved, the fundies it reminded me of, and the few ways I think it could have been improved.

Morgan, from Paul and Morgan, has a new podcast called 'Unbuckled' with her friend Carl and today we're responding to episode 2 and all it's dangerous content!

A little bonus episode, originally from my second channel, quickly reviewing all the books I read in February 2026. It was a good month!

Hi all, today we're back to review another book by Tiktok's favourite thriller author, Frieda McFadden. Her new book 'Dear Debbie' is easily the worst one yet as it tells the tale of self-insert, middle aged Mum Debbie who decides to do awful things to awful people. Get ready for a thriller with no thrills, the stupidest genius yet, and crimes for the sake of crimes.

Hi all, today I'm looking at the 'secret' blog posts of Freida McFadden, written over 2 blogs and 12 years before she got famous. In these she talks about being a doctor (and hating it), being a mother (and seeming to hate spending time with her kids?), a disdain for childfree people, her writing influences and goals, and a strange misogynistic view of women who she believes are 'p...

Morgan, of Paul and Morgan, has started a new podcast with her friend Caroline / Carl and it's a bunch of nonsense where they just moan about everything. Today we're responding to the first episode.

In this bonus episode, originally published on my second Youtube channel, Tiktok's favourite anonymous author with bad wigs has finally revealed her real name. Frieda's Blogs: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zNz5vv3RvdFRP1PWs2bBj76wjMNV5Ud5kUttD1DmHMo/edit?usp=sharing

Hi all, today we're looking at the new novel by Colleen Hoover 'Woman Down' - a self-insert piece of fiction which totally isn't actually about her... it's just about an author who had trouble with a film adaptation of her book because of an awful director and online criticism. She returns after years (both in the fictional world and in the real world) to write a book about her...

Hi all! Today we're taking a look at some utter chaos and nonsense in the thriller 'The Perfect Marriage' by Jeneva Rose. Please don't ask me to review the sequel - I'm not sure I can take it. :P Sources:https://www.moneyhelper.org.uk/en/family-and-care/talk-money/financial-abuse-spotting-the-signs-and-leaving-safely https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/mar/17/80-percent-of...

Today I'm taking a look at the thriller novel 'Ward D' by Frieda McFadden which may be one of the worst books I've ever read.

Today we're reviewing the second book in HD Carlton's 'Cat and Mouse' duology - this is Hunting Adeline.

Hi lovely people, today I'm reviewing another terrible book which has been requested by a lot of you - Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton. I was supposed to be reviewing the sequel in this video too but it's also looooong and I'm currently working on editing that one so it'll be out in a day or two's time (hopefully!) but for now please (attempt to) enjoy this and I'll see yo...

Today I'm taking a look at the thriller novel 'The Teacher' by Frieda McFadden which may be one of the most infuriating books I've ever read. Thanks again BookTok for another terrible recommendation.
