A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid
3.0

⭐ DNF – Couldn’t stay engaged

I really wanted to like A Study of Drowning, but unfortunately, it just didn’t hold my interest enough to finish. The premise had potential, and I pushed myself through a good portion of the book hoping it would click — but it never quite did.

The pacing felt slow, and I found it hard to connect with the characters or feel invested in the story. In the end, I decided to DNF rather than force myself through it. Not for me, but I know others might enjoy the atmospheric style and literary tone more.
