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 prequel of Dune by Herbert’s son. I only read like 10 pages or less.

    And that was too much.

      it took several attempts to get through dune tbh, though it was good, and i tried the next book but didn’t make it that far
