If I Stopped Haunting You by Colby Wilkens
Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.
DNF 15%
As with any book I pick up, I wanted to like this one. It sounded like a perfect rom com for October, but I’m just not interested. I like to try get to 30-50% before I DNF, but I already dislike the FMC so much.
I understand where the FMC is coming from on some points and see that she’s struggling, but her inability to recognize her own flaws is infuriating and we’re only a few chapters in. I also find calling the issue at the beginning the “Incident” really cheesy. And I apologize to anyone named Laszlo, but I swear his name was mentioned every other sentence in the first few chapters and I couldn’t take it.
It’s for all of these reasons that I won’t be finishing. It might just be me, and that’s completely fine!, but it’s not fair for me to continue to fight through reading this when I’m clearly already annoyed to no end.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the eARC.
