Status Updates From The Story Spinner

Gave up.

Picked this up from the library cuz she’s been compared to Susanna Kearsley. I’m not far yet, but the story has promise. But the writing, oof. Run-on sentences and excessively long paragraphs, dialogue with lines where it’s unclear who’s speaking, lots of short and shallow scenes that make me feel a bit like I’m scrolling Instagram reels. She’s a bestselling author? I’m expecting an amazing plot. 😆
