stephanieviolet 's review for:

The Phoenix Keeper by S.A. MacLean

DID NOT FINISH: 4%

---

I can't do it. I'm 4% - 30 MINUTES - into this book and I've been told Aila is socially and generally anxious 36 times. I've also been TOLD how anxious she is, while not seeing any of it. The narrator is perfect. She's great.

 But the authors way of writing was fucking killing me. Who was the narrator talking to???? Was Aila talking to herself???? The commentary of some random 3rd person in the text is absolutely horrible. As I'm listening the author will make some comment on how silly cell phones are! Or how Aila wished people didn't existed! Because 

AILA ISNT LIKE OTHER GIRLS.

🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
JESUS WE GET IT. Can we stop writing women who hate other women??? IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD, CHAPPELL ROAN???
