Do Not Disturb by Freida McFadden
1.0
what a godawful book lmao
edit: the narration was so-and-so, but the piss poor storytelling by freida is honestly a crime and i don’t think i’ve read a book this bad in years.
the plot is a hitchcock inspired nightmare in which you, the reader/listener, gets mocked for following the red herrings set by the author — ‘oh, you thought /i/ was a killer? how stupid of you’ and the constant explanation by the characters is giving ✨ i never learned how to write a good story ✨ by ms mcfadden here. why are you telling me every single thing the characters do or think?
the plot twist was… well, i mean if you’re into badly written housewife dramas with a bit of murder then i’m sure it was peak literature. i expect more from a supposedly well liked author? my mistake.
oh, also, if you’re bipolar, then you’re a crazy psychopath — it’s great that we’re upholding the long lived tradition of painting mental illnesses like this 👌
