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.
Empress of Air & Chaos by Noelle Rayne.
It was for a book club and I had to DNF at 14% and over 9 grammar and spelling errors. The story writing was cheesy and too eager—it read like a younger sibling’s high school fan fiction.
I’m listening to The Fourth Wing audiobook now and it’s cringeworthy. It’s giving me hunger games wannabe vibes.
