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 love his comedies, and some of his dramas, and this is poor timing. I am also a recovering alcoholic. Matthew Perry’s new book is a portrayal of the most narcissistic “poor me” pile of bullshit I have ever read. “I do this because of what YOU did to ME!” Had me shaknig my head. I did finish it, but was shaking my head the whole time. He just never takes any responsibility for his actions, and misrepresents addiction in an irresponsible way.
