Straight Expectations
by Calum McSwiggan
DID NOT FINISH: 15%
DNF at 40 pages.
There’s nothing really wrong with this book and it probably appeals to a certain audience but that audience is not me.
I didn’t like that the MC was extremely judgmental and yet hated when others judged him. 🤨 That’s my least favorite combo in an MC, especially in a YA.
Also I read a review that this isn’t a friends to lovers romance and the fact that I really liked Dean makes me sad he’s not the LI. 😢
And at 40 pages into a 270 page book, we still don’t have the main plot. This MC actually seems to be happy in his life? He just is obsessed with this other guy who doesn’t really know him at all which is super High School but also a teeny bit sad to watch. 😅
Just not the book I expected.
