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 Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
There was so much hype, a movie, etc… so I cracked it open and dove in… then it was just a “men writing women” manic pixie dream girl rape-fetish piece.
Gross.
