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 Flight Attendant, when it first started getting traction.

    I have no idea if it’s good or bad. I read like 3 pages before shelving it.

    The formatting was awful, and that’s one of my biggest pet peeves in reading, so I checked ahead to make sure it was a consistent thing, and just returned it to the library.
