The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston
Did not finish book. Stopped at 16%.
2nd attempt at reading ashley poston, 2nd dnf.
my god please someone get her a better editor. the premises are so creative and promising, but every description, every quip, every joke, is used and then re-used pages later, and the writing grows so stale so quickly. most of the metaphors do not make sense for what she is talking about. too many issues with sentence structure. too much info dumping, not enough gradual exposition. the dialogue is so corny and so flat, and the characters all blend together into one very mediocre hallmark movie cast.
