Yeah… no.

The plot resolved 30% ago. HOW IS THERE STILL NEARLY A QUARTER OF BOOK LEFT??

Not even officially halfway and I’m at 202 notes on my kindle. It’s actually getting bogged down and laggy. This may be a record.

Just picked this up again after a late dinner and reread the last paragraph and my flabbers are once again gasted because WHAT EVEN IS THIS PARAGRAPH? Did nobody NOBODY catch this??!

I literally cannot with the narrative inconsistencies in this book.

This book is wild for all the wrong reasons. My note/highlight count is up to 92. And I’m reusing some for additional thoughts. I’m just over a quarter into the book. 😬

This is the oddest writing style/narrative choice combination I’ve read in a LONG time. Why is this MC behaving this way? What “mystery” is she all worked up about? Why do I have more kindle notes than % read?

This is already not doing much for me. Between the first person present POV (HATE IT), and the MC pacing, gnawing on a pencil, and having her anxiety spike her heart rate because she couldn’t get any Google results about the previous owners of her house (WHY?)… I’m not feeling it. Maybe it’ll improve?
