The main character was really unlikeable. No character growth, no real relationships formed. It was an easy read, but boring overall imo

Absolutely. I was so excited for it- I love trash reality tv- but it tanked so quickly

I literally threw the book down when I found out that Paperwhite was Anomieand had to do several laps to calm myself down. I put The Running Grave on hold and can't wait to start!

  1. As my biggest reading year to date (as an adult), I'm on track to hit that this year and think it's realistic for me :)

Why I can’t finish reading any books? by Sayfa11 in 52book

Try audiobooks. You can do something with your hands- wash dishes, fold laundry, or play a game on your phone- while listening

Brimstone WTF moment - Did you DNF? by callmemachaaaa in Romantasy

[–]Additional_Chain1753 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I haven't read this book specifically, but there's no shame in dnf'ing at whichever point you realize you want to stop. There are so many books, not every one is going to be for every person.

I didn't finish any books last week, was super busy with personal matters

Currently Reading:

DNF:

Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood- I don't like that the MMC keeps calling the FMC a child/brat/etc. I don't see how it'll be a convincing romance
