I absolutely hated that book

I stopped reading it months ago. I like the author though! I’m reading In the Likely Event by her & it’s so good! I’ve shed a couple of tears. Maybe fantasy isn’t my jam? I don’t know.

I'm primarily a fantasy reader and I really did not think it was a good book. What do you think you didn't like about the book?

brefp.bsky.social•35 days ago

I was only maybe 20 or so pages in. I think I probably didn’t give it a fair chance. I wasn’t connecting with it. I know the likelihood of me connecting with it is probably slimmer because it’s a fantasy book.

Ah ok. Maybe you should try something with some small fantasy elements weaved in. What's your main genre?
