A review by tamara_reads
Runaway Train by Lee Matthew Goldberg

Did not finish book.

1.0

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.

TW: death, underage drinking, underage smoking, doing drugs, mentions of self harm, some grief, sexual assault, fat phobia, no consent, abortion, and suicide.

Why? Just why?

I expected to rate this book around 4 stars but it was a huge disappointment.

Pros: None.

Cons: The main character, Nico, was horrible. I couldn’t connect to her at all and she felt like a shallow character to me. Just like the rest of the characters. There was absolutely nothing interesting about them and I was either bored or annoyed while reading.

The events of the book were boring. There was nothing that kept me interesting and I wanted to DNF the book the entire time, but I kept reading just so I can review it.

This book might be nice to other people but for me it was dissatisfying.
