Welcome to the Book Nook! This is the weekly thread for Avocados to discuss books we’re currently reading, recommendations, genre, and serious literary criticism.
This week’s recommended discussion: what books have made you angry? We’ve all been there, but the interesting thing is why. Wasted potential, killed a favorite character, sexist/racist/other-ist, bad editing, whiffed the ending? The reasons are endless, so what are some that angried up your blood?

One caveat: because we’re here to use our words, this is a NO GIF/YouTube/social media embed zone (the OTs are full of clutter, and I want to keep that out of this thread).
