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.

    Fire and Fury. I can’t remember exactly what happened but pretty early on in the book he said John Boehner resigned years before he actually did. Not a DT fan, but if you’re gonna trash him it needs to be right.

    Bewilderment by Richard Powers. Tedious but also his characterizations of autism really pissed me off.
