CRITIQUING 1-STAR BOOK REVIEWS.

In this video, we dive into the curious world of 1-star reviews—specifically, those left for some of the most celebrated classics in literature: Crime and Punishment, Great Expectations, and Pride and Prejudice. But this isn't about poking fun at harsh opinions. Instead, we explore what these reviews reveal about how we read, why we read, and the often oversimplified way we judge books. Is a book only "good" if we enjoy it? Is it "bad" just because we struggled with it? Through a close reading of these critiques, we ask deeper questions about literary value, reader expectations, and the purpose of literature itself. This video invites you to think beyond the thumbs-up/thumbs-down mentality and consider the many lenses through which a book can be approached. Whether you're a lifelong book lover or just curious about why certain stories endure, you'll find something to reflect on here. 0:00 Intro 2:22 - First Critique 16:29 - Second Critique 22:10 - Third Critique 30:35 - Fourth Critique 32:10 - Fifth Critique 39:34 - Last Critique 🌟 Want to read along with us?
