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.

    American Psycho. I didn’t even read the full first chapter. I knew immediately his writing style was not for me.

      I still might try that one again later, but it was painful. Didn’t make it out of the first chapter.
