8. Feb.

I respectfully DNF at 10%/ after chapter 3. I'm not proud of myself to give up so early, but I just can't. I already had a weird feeling during the first chapter, but thought that I just needed to give it some time. Well, what can I say. The FMC is pining after her best friend, who is now engaged to another mutual friend. She has been in love with him for 8 (!) years and still has some sort of hope (?). I feel like I read her whining and pity herself nonstop during those chapters. There's also this constant thought that Alice (her best friend's fiancée) is planing something behind her back? And don't get me started on that weird love triangle, or as someone else said love quartett, because that just took a really weird turn for me. On top of that, there's was something in the writing, especially the way the FMC talks about other characters, that didn't work for me. This book is surely for someone, but that someone is not me. Thank you to Renegade/Dialogue for providing this book for review via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
