One Liked and One Disliked From the Same Author

As the title of this list suggests, I've put together a (short) list of one book I've enjoyed (on the left) and one that disappointed me (on the right) from the same author.
Some I've read long time ago, so I can't be sure my rating would be the same, but I thought it was a fun idea to try.
