Forget Me Not by Karissa Kinword
1.0
I suggested this for my monthly book club and I ended up DNFing at 25% I just couldnt do it. It read very weird for me. I think it was first person omniscient point of view because we got the FMC main thoughts AND the MMC but it was all from the FMC pov. It also switched who's head we were in like every sentence and I could not keep track of what thought belonged to who.
"I think I may be dreaming"
"It made his skin crawl thinking about the way Logan spoke of me"
Overall just very confusing way of writing the story.
My second point of contention is the lack of imagery and description of any setting. It was very bland. I had a very hard time picturing the setting where the book was taking place. Like all of a sudden the characters are in a bar but I have no idea what this bar looks like.
My third point is a lack of world building. As a sci-fi romance, there should be some kind of description of the world that you're in. I was very confused half of the time. Like even a dictionary of words, so to speak in the beginning, explaining words like "single spin" and "Otera"
Like I understand, this is supposed to be a smutty romance with no plot, so if that is the goal than market it as so
I had such high hopes for this book, and I think most of my book club is going to DNF it ☹️
