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 read this one recently after finding it in a free box of books on the street. Actually didn’t mind it. Hated basically all the characters so the looming expectation of a murder was very much a positive thing. Thought it was a decent enough brain-off crime mystery.
