Hardcore Twenty-Four by Janet Evanovich

I- what? I am aware that I am a dumbass for reading a book #24 in a series but also what? What was this book? I understand the fanbase is likely whoever picks this book up in a grocery store but also this was just so bad. The writing was so cringy and there was a side character in here who lowkey felt like a caricature of a person and most of her personality was the clothes she wore. The MC kept referring to the revealing clothes the other woman was wearing every single time she showed up and it was so weird and uncomfortable?? I don't care that she's wearing a short skirt and heels. Shut up already instead of mentioning it every page.
Picking this up was like tuning into a tv show you've never watched before and have no idea what is going on but then you realize the tv show is utter meaningless trash that has no point at all. I only picked this up because it was at the top of my library's romance section for available but this obviously isn't a romance novel. As for a mystery / crime novel? Ugh not good either. This book came out in 2017 and isn't even the newest in the series. How did I end up here???
The romance was all over the place, with like three different guys and it was all so weird. This entire book was weird??? Half the book was about some dumb fake zombie stuff and the other half was mentioning how they kept feeding a snake weird things.
The writing was so much of "he said. I said. Simon said. she said." and because I was listening on audiobook, it stuck out how unnatural and stiff everything was.
Yikes.
