Im too bored. The blurb kind of seems off and doesnt match what im reading.

Is the female rage and revenge in the room with us? 🙄🤷🏻‍♀️

Dnf @ 20%
Its just not for me.

Dnf @ 69% GROSS.
It was mediocre and mom's pov was often hard to follow but I was going to finish reading anyways. HOWEVER when it got to the talk about someone mentioning masterbating to Harvey Weinstein and I quote some of the text "....I mean, he was a great f*ck. I guess I'm the only woman who slept with him because she wanted to."
Ewwww. No thanks. bye.

Dnf @ 34%
Too mundane for too long, lost interest to keep reading.

DNF @ 15%
Them sniffing baby farts and calling a dog a slut? Lmao... girl bye.

Dnf @ 17%
This is just too boring for me.

Ive been trying to read this book for a month and a half but as soon as I start to read I don't get very far becuase even though the premise is really interesting the book itself is so boring and makes for such a tedious read.

Dnf @ 11%

I just cant with this book.
As someone who loves Catriona Ward this book is not it. Does not feel like her writing/story telling.

DNF @ 41%
Im just not feeling it.

DNF @ 29%

Im just not vibing with this book. I put it down a week ago and have had zero interest to pick t up again.

Dnf @ 52%

Im was really enjoying this book however someone told me some content warnings regarding an animal and im just not in the right headspace for that.
I put it down for a bit and thought id come back to it but its now been well over a month and I just cant get back to it. Maybe at a later date.

Unbearable to read. Im going to stab my eyes out if I have to read about this guy talking about his dick one more time.

DNF @ 15%

the jumps between Dam & Gu randomly between paragraphs is so disjointed and confusing. You dont know who's POV youre reading unless they mention the other person's name. I went to read reviews and apperantly the pov should be alternating between black and white bullets? However this was not the case in the ebook arc from Netgalley. Its too confusing and frustrating to read so DNF.

DNF @ 23%

Im getting whiplash between the pov switch ups, there's also hardly anything unique or distinguishable between the women (so far at least) which makes it that much more confusing to know who's who. And soo boring, my mind keeps wandering elsewhere.

DNF @ 50%

Insufferable.

DNF @ 53%

Mostly boring ramblings. Not for me.

DNF @ 47%

I put the book down like a week ago and still have no interest in picking it back up. We're basically at the halfway mark, and if it doesn't feel like the story progressed enough for my liking so I just don't care enough to see what happens or how else it drags on.

DNF @ PAGE 2.

A F* slur was used on page 2 so im not giving this book any more of my time. Immediately DNF'd and decluttered. 

DNF @ 18%

Not for me. I am really struggling with the writing style.

DNF @ 22%

I thought I'd be more into this because the concept sounded cool, but im just not into it. I'm just not that invested to try and force myself to keep reading.

DNF @ 10%

The writing should not be this boring and repetitive this early in the book. I also really don't like the abrupt flipping of POV, making things confusing. There are also no chapter markers. Trying to read this on kindle is very annoying.

Dnf @ 35%

I thought the 1st (of 3) story The Diving Pool was underwhelming, and the unnecessary R slur at the end gave me the ick to continue reading, so that's that for me.

Dnf @ 32%

Im just not really feeling it, I want to know what happens but not enough to try to get through the rest of the book. I'm just not vibing with the writing style.

DNF @ 8%

I started reading this as a physical copy, read the first chapter, and I just can't get into the writing. I then thought I would give it a 2nd chance by also trying it on audiobook... holy hell, this book has one of the worst narrations I've ever listened to. I listened to chapter 2, and that's enough for me.

DNF @ 15%.

I just can't deal with the 9 unnamed children that only go by nicknames. Having to read The Liar, Twin boy, Twin Girl, The Oldest, The One That Runs Away, The Baby, The Crybaby, The Secret Keeper, The Beautiful Voice over and over is so annoying. I just can't be bothered with the rest of the book.

DNF @ 51%

I had really high hopes for this book. With everything that is going on in this book... It should be a page turner for me, but OMG, I'm actually just so bored. I dont know how a book can have so many interesting concepts and be so dull at the same time, lol. I kept forcing myself to read in hopes it picks up, but I'm at 51%, and I regret not DNFing sooner.
