You wanted to read the book, you were excited to crack it open, you came into it with good faith and anticipation… but you ended up dnf-ing it. Which book and why?
Mine was The Maid by Nita Prose. It was for my book club and looked like a fun murder mystery. Instead I got instant manic-pixie-dream-neurodivergent-girl vibes, and I noped out before the crime scene was even found.
the book was called ‘they both die at the end’ Silvera Adam, and I got half way in before I decided to call it quits. It’s the only book I ever DNFd. I believe one of the protagonists had a weird way of speaking that made it obvious a person was trying to write and speak “hip”. The protagonists often would say “mad” every other sentence. (Ex. That’s mad weird). It got on my nerves so I just stopped reading cause it was borderline annoying.
