The Chrysalis by Brendan Deneen

1.0

Yikes, this was a surprisingly bad read. I don't know if I've ever read such unrealistic dialogue in my life; the character's conversations with each other sounded like the cringy conversations I wrote in fifth grade. I didn't find any part of the book particularly scary either, and got very bored with the non-compelling storyline about halfway through. This was almost a DNF for me, but it was short enough that I decided to just push through and get to the end.

Also, what in God's name was up with the constant ellipses?? I swear every page had multiple "..."s in each paragraph, and for some reason that really started to bug me after a while. I've never in my life seen a book with so many ellipses.

Not a fan of this one.
