I put this on hold at my local library a month before it came out back when there was still buzz about Taylor swift or a swiftie being the author. It has since come out that 3? people collectively wrote the book I think based on the script for the movie. I truly think this was AI generated or something. It took me an HOUR to get through 31 pages and I normally read about a page a minute. The prologue was rough it was like Russian propaganda?? I’ve never DNFed before but today’s the day because I can’t sit through the rest of the 338 pages. It’s apparently very different from the movie anyway so if you’re interested I would just see that. I think I will forget about this book and not blink an eye. Unsuccessful bait and switch marketing strategy for putting the book out at the same time as the movie AND for tricking swifties into purchasing this book.
