Unrequited by Emma Grey

1.0

Unrequited is, without a doubt, the absolute worst book I have ever read. The plot is very silly but I could forgive that if literally every other part of the book didn’t suck so much. I’m all for a totally unrealistic meet-cute when it’s not executed as though it’s fan fiction on Wattpad written by a 12 year old. The writing was terrible, the characters and their developments (or lack thereof) were terrible, the pacing was terrible, the storylines were terrible. Jumping back and forth between four different perspectives meant that I didn’t get the opportunity to actually care about any of the characters, and it was all so ridiculously convoluted. The age gaps made me immensely uncomfortable. I can’t believe Unrequited was published. It’s just poorly executed tropes on poorly executed tropes.
