No One Is Talking About This, by Patricia Lockwood
Did not finish book.

The first few chapters came across as super pretentious, and read like snippets of the authors thoughts, which I wasn't particularly interested in reading. I heard the second half is better, but I couldn't see myself making it through the first half.

The Chai Factor, by Farah Heron
Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.

Couldn't get past the first two chapters because both characters were asshats tbh.
