DNF but I read the ending. How does such a goofy book end up this tedious?

I would have thought I’d at least enjoy being annoyed at the characters but the way it’s written is so BORING. He did this. She did that. Then he said XYZ. I guess it’s supposed to be dry humor but I didn’t connect with the one-dimensional, self-absorbed characters at all.

And the end was wacky… by that point I’d lost interest though.
