Thank to #NetGalley for an #ARC of #Scripted.
Synopsis: Jade, overwhelmed by her controlling family and neglected by her self-absorbed boyfriend, feels lost in adulthood. Unexpectedly, she discovers a script outside her flat, detailing future arguments with her boyfriend. As she finds more scripts, showing conflicts with her boss, mother, and sister, Jade realises the bleak path ahead. Determined to change her fate, she confronts the painful reality of her relationships and strives for a different future.
Review:☆☆.5
At first, I was eager to read the book because of its premise. However, I found it challenging to read as it felt quite slow paced. Additionally, I struggled to connect with the characters, particularly finding Jade's character annoying. I get that her lack of backbone is part of the plot, but it made it hard for me to get into the story. Nevertheless, as Jade found her voice, I found myself enjoying the book more.
