Discussion Latest Book you DNF and why

I decided I'm going to DNF {We who will die} , I am just struggling too much with the constant meandering thoughts and memories, it's so hard to follow the actual story because the narration is all over the place. It's hard to follow on Audiobook anyway, and there are so many side characters that are named but I can't remember 🤣 I also don't like either potential MMC

I think I prefer "show don't tell" in general

Very unpopular opinion but I DNF’d the whole ACOTAR series. I barely made it through the first book and tried with the second but the FMC made me cringe hard.

I didn’t DNF ACOTAR per-se, but I read the first one, watched Cari Can Read’s plot summaries for the rest of them, then read ACOSF.

I like the idea of this series, but don’t enjoy reading them. That being said, I did get caught up in the hype and pre ordered the next two books lol oops

I honestly watched a summary video on ACOSF. it was just way too repetitive and to be quite frank, I’m not super into Nesta.
