A review by brokenbodybitch
Fifteen Minutes of Shame by Lisa Daily

Did not finish book. Stopped at 60%.
The title and blurb sounded very interesting to me however, I really struggled to get through this book, and I ended up DNF'ing at 60%. The first 30% I wanted to DNF already but the reviews I read said it gets better after that, I cant necessarily agree with that statement though. The pacing was all over the place, some moments it felt so dragged out where as others it moved so fast I feel like I missed important information. This part may just be not being the target audience since I am a 20 year old trans masc person, but I also felt as though I was reading a book out of the early 2000's or at least written by someone who was in their late teens early 20's during the 2000's (internalized misogyny, fat-phobia and casual whorephobia come to mind). There was a lot of little things that made the book feel dated and just not my taste, the story had potential but the actual book is just not my taste.
