Infinity Alchemist by Kacen Callender

I had to dnf this after the first several chapters because the main character and their everything just was literally putting me in a bad mood.

So, I just did not like the constant thought process of the main character feeling like the poorest person because they did not get into this school.  They do work at the school as a grounds keeper/gardener.   But, the rich students are really rude to them, which yeah I get that... but the whole time Ash is feeling sorry for themself, they also feel like everyone else is incredibly stupid.   Which, I personally just don't like reading this point of view.  The thing is, I totally get this feeling, which may be why it's so annoying to read about.  Because feeling like this is not helpful and usually makes any situation worse for me personally so I associate this vibe with just feeling negative.  Anyways, I really do apologize, but I had to put this one down.  

This is just my opinion and I really appreciate receiving this review copy from Netgalley and the Publisher.
