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.

    Huh, just to add a differing opinion to the mix. I actually really liked it! I thought it was a fun way to tell the story.

      Same! Very surprised to see this answer as this is one of the few books I’ve read in the last 5 years that I was actually satisfied by the end. Definitely worth a second read to see how it all fits together now that I know everything.
