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.

    I haven’t read that book but hard agree on the library comment. I have tried such a variety of books (some of them turning into loves) just because I knew that I wouldn’t lose much if I didn’t like it.

      Libraries are such an underused resource. I know people still spending $30 on each Audible book when they could be getting them all for free on Libby!
