I wish people were more like books. If you realize halfway through a novel that you aren't enjoying it anymore, you can just stop and find something new to read. Same with films and TV dramas. There is no judgment, no guilt, nobody
even needs to know unless you choose to tell them. But with people, you tend to have to see it through to the end, and sadly not everyone gets to live happily ever after
Sometimes you just know a person is bad news as soon as you meet them, because they’re rotten, inside and out, and instinct tells you to stay away.
this one was difficult for me to rate. when i finished it, it didn’t feel like a 5 star read BUT it also didn’t feel like a 4 star read or as low as a 3 star read. i think i hyped this one up for myself prior to diving in to it, which ultimately lead to me being disappointed and settling on 3 stars. it started out great and i really liked it until the end, which i wasn’t a fan of at all. while i didn’t guess the main/big plot twist, i still didn’t get that wow factor i look for in thrillers when the twists/reveals occur. i did really enjoy the writing style, so i’ll definitely be checking out other books by this author - this just wasn’t the book for me.
