Welcome to Litsy!

Well unfortunately I got about 2/3 through and was just not interested in the rest. I read through a bunch of reviews and many folks said it started strong and weakened in the middle, without a clear or strong conclusion.

It‘s about a Latina reader writing to an older Latino writer she admired greatly and had a confusing relationship with 10 years prior, after being contacted by a reporter about said author being charged with sexual assault.

I didn't realize this was a murder mystery. I tried to stick it out, but I just don't care.

Sounds brilliant. But it's actually an absolute bag of shite. Bail @ 30%

This one really did hold my interest in the beginning, but the further I got, the less I cared about these characters. And the way they all spoke in a very formal, semi monotonous manner was driving me crazy. The narrator was good, it was more about the way the dialogue was written. No one ever uses contractions in this story and it made them seem robotic somehow. #DNF #hailthebail

Bail at 50% I can not take anymore.

Described as "hilarious laugh out loud fun." It is not hilarious, I did not laugh, and it certainly isn't fun. It went on and on and on.....

Relatable!

Here is to learning what we don't like and moving on!

DNF - downloaded a e book sample to give this one a go as it sounded interesting but I still don‘t like his writing style sadly.

Would have been read for the Literally Dead Book Club

I wanted so much to like this! I tried and hoped it would improve, but I‘m giving up. Made it a little more than halfway through. Why is even the play part boring? I don‘t like these women and they mostly don‘t feel like real, complete humans with true sisterly feelings for one another.
Sorry #camplitsy.
