Midnights With You by Clare Osongco
Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.
DNF @ 9% because of the insta-love and the pathetic MC.
The book begins and the MC takes a photo of a stranger she spoke to for 20 seconds. Bizarre, right off the bat.
She randomly finds this guy the following day and does the following: “I (…) tug my shorts down slightly so it’s more obvious I’m wearing a crop top”…… That has to be the most ridiculously pathetic thing I’ve ever seen someone do. 😭 All this so a STRANGER will…… what?? Notice your bellybutton?? Bitch STAND UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭
The dude (who at this point she spoke to for a total of 1 minute in her entire lifetime) is making her feel “pins-and-needles” in her chest, and when their fingers accidentally brush it “sends a little jolt” down her spine………… 🤡🤡🤡 Yup. It’s insta-love………………
When she gets home, she can’t stop thinking about this random boy: “Jay’s laugh rings in my ears. I’m trying not to think about his eyes in the golden afternoon light. Or his hands, the way they do that nervous flexing thing. Or his mouth when it curled into a smirk.”. Mind you, she doesn’t even know him, at this point…
I looked through the ebook and they kiss at around 40%, and she says she’s “wanted this for so long”, which, yeah, I could tell, because she’s literally catching feelings from the moment they first talk…… 🙃
Aff… Anyways. I was really excited to read this book, but I am sooooooooooo sick and tired of insta-love!!!!!!! So I just refuse to set myself up for another mediocre read. I’m not gonna waste more time on a book that most definitely wont go above 3 stars. If you don’t mind looking past the insta-love, maybe you’ll enjoy this. I, however, am already annoyed, and I only read like 30 pages, so goodbye forever.
