Ok wait, but I'm only 14% in and already completely obsessed with their dynamic.

Ughhh there's NOTHING I want to read! And no I don't wanna talk about the 550+ books on my TBR. There's NOTHING I tell you!

Dear brain, PLEASE just tell me what you want to read and I swear I'll do it! You don't want the horror video game book? Ok. How about the cute smutty PNR? No? Fine! I beg of you to accept the CR featuring an autistic ace MC. Istg.

The real world and my brain are not being nice right now and I'm really hoping a short, smutty, silly PNR can fix my life?

Caine is the literal worst. Like, he’s a total piece of shit and it’s been a while since I’ve hated an MC this much. At this point I’m just reading it in the hopes that he gets dropped off a cliff.

OMG OMG OMG it's happeningggggggggg

Soft dnf at 39%. Idk if the ennui has got its hooks in me or what but I am STRUGGLING. I find it hard to read books where one MC fights it so hard. If someone rejected me as often as Kieran rejects Jordy I would have a complex, a therapist, and a strong desire to go out and find a man who cares. Jordy has god tier self esteem to get through this shit but I don’t have the bandwidth right now.

Soft dnf at 70%. I know that’s a hell of a long way in and the writing is fine but the borderline TSTL decisions of the one MC are gonna come back to bite them all in a big way and I’m trying not to victim blame. I gotta come back when my sympathy meter refills or I’m gonna have hate in my heart.

Soft dnf at 39%. I am obviously in some kind of mood because nothing is hitting right now.

A note from me to me:

Literally no one is challenging you to finish every book you start. The grand total of people who care is zero. There is no prize. Yes, you are a fast reader. No, it does not cost you a lot of time to finish books. But you still do not HAVE to.

Now get a little snack, get through the decision paralysis of picking a new book, and start. And if that book is bad or boring... you know what to do.
