Status Updates From My Big Fat Fake Marriage

This is almost a textbook, it's so dense and slow. Dense brains are good, dense books are bad.

What the fuck - have i had a stroke? What is happening with the type set here? And who thought this would be a good idea?

He just copped a feel in his sleep and that's the most action this book has seen. Like literally - nothing else has happened!

Almost halfway through this book and literally nothing has happened.

This author isn't slow burn. They're more "overthink everything, internal conversation the majority of the book, make zero progress in the storyline and bore the reader to death". I didn't realize that I had read the prior book but when I looked it up, I distinctly remember being frustrated by the authors slow progress and lack of characters chemistry. And lo and behold, here we are again.

I genuinely can't tell if the author has ever met an American before because Beck is so cartoony and over the top. Tbf, Connie/Hazel is also pretty cartoony, but she feels a tiny bit more grounded as a character.

This might be past my threshold for cringe but I do want to know where it's going...
