A review by feliciasrose
A Holly Jolly Ever After by Sierra Simone, Julie Murphy

Did not finish book. Stopped at 68%.
I'm really mad about this. FMC was unbearable and barely relatable to me. She only got fucking worse and worse. I hated the MMCs family, they treated him like shit. And acting like  a grown man who runs his own very successful business is unreliable makes no motherfucking sense. He's at most immature. I just can't deal with the fact that another 30% of this fucking book would be ragging on him and not this bitch who therapy honestly isn't working for. My god this mad me so fucking angryyyy. I knew I should have DNF'd earlier on. I didn't like the purity culture talk. I did find it somewhat interesting, but it was not captivating enough and it did not supply enough for me to feel connected to the female lead. It felt like she was constantly pointing to the MMC having bad character when it seemed like she honest to fucking god never asked him anything of significance. She assumed he wanted casual - even after he asked her out on a MFing date UGH and she assumed that he was basically a pice of shit user who just thought so little of her despite the many times he articulated to her how he thought she was perfect the way she was. I just, what the fuckkk. Clearly I'm unhappy. I know it'll be a 2 star read. No fucking need to finish this blasphemy.
