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.

    TIL that movie was based on a book and given the author, makes total sense why it was ridiculously bad and starred John Travolta. My family was so confused after watching it, my parents love Travolta and sci fi, and didn’t expect that at all.
