Come & Get It by Kiley Reid

Did not finish book. Stopped at 11%.

BORRRINGGGGG... jk I was interested enough but the characters felt like caricatures. They also write out the "southern accents" soooo much and it 1. Makes it hard to read 2. Kind of pisses me off as someone with a southern accent bc it definitely felt like it was being made fun of. There are better ways to show someone has a thick accent. For example, in things we do in the dark, she told us the character had a thick accent, then would write the sentence normally but include ," pronounced (phonetic spelling here) and then they'd continue the dialogue. 

I probably wouldn't have hated the book if I'd finished, but I'm in a bit of a reading slump lately and this was a kindle library loan that is almost due and that is just stressful. I also hated the last book I listened to so I need a GOOD book next you know
