blurrypetals 's review for:

Park Avenue by Renée Ahdieh
2.0

 Talk about not living up to the promised premise. The burn was simply far too slow here and I read so much of this book, still waiting for something to start happening.

I was expecting something fun yet thought provoking like Crazy Rich Asians and something raw and intense like Succession. It sounded like such an interesting combo! It still does! I simply wish we had, I dunno, actually gotten such a combo.

I guess it's possible I missed the "good part" by choosing not to finish this one, but at about 35% of the way into the book, we were still setting so much stuff up.

I'm pretty disappointed since I've really enjoyed just about everything of Ahdieh's I've read before and unfortunately this simply can't join those ranks. I'm simply too bored.
