I gave it a good chance. Got to just over page 50 and thought it‘s not worth continuing it.

DNF. 13% in and so far nothing but a straight guy complaining how difficult it is to get laid. Not my cup of tea.

#dnf Life is too short to read books you don‘t like. Unless you‘re in school, then you have no choice.

My last DNF of 2025. The story is moving too slow to keep my attention. I gave it over 50 pages, but I don't feel it's going to get any better. #hailthebail

I listened to 2.5 hours of this 25.5 hour audiobook and it just wasn‘t doing anything for me. I hung onto it for a few days, but I have no interest in going back to try to keep going. Thanks to @Suet624 for helping me know bailing was the right choice for me! #TOBlonglist

Sorry, friends. This one didn‘t do it for me. Bailed at 35%.

I was so excited when I found DEAD DEAD GIRLS in a Little Free Library near Finian‘s place, and so crushed when I actually dove in. To be generous, this reads like a second draft: flat characters, long paragraphs full of dull sentences that repeat the same thing from three different angles, and consistency errors. It could‘ve been a solid book with a more rigorous editor. As it stands, I bailed at 50 pages. Back into the LFL it goes.
