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 remember really wanting to read it from seeing the book cover at Borders when it first came out. I opened it and read the first couple of pages there in the store to see if it would hook me and I could never get into it. I don’t mind the movies, I just can’t get the books started.
