To Love Jason Thorn by Ella Maise
1.0
I’m furious with myself. Mostly because it’s 2023 and I haven’t yet learned to DNF a book when I’m hating it. And because I should have also learned my lesson with the first Ella Maise book I read - Marriage for One which was also horrendous. I should only blame myself… however I do blame those deceptive TikToks and their comment sections that made the books seem stellar.
I started it on Audible and while I absolutely love Sebastian York and he can do no wrong, the female narrator sounded like her mouth was overflowing with spit and she was unbearable.
So I moved over to Kindle. How did it get worse than I thought possible? The fmc was shockingly written. It was giving major pick me, pathetic, whiny, grotesquely childlike and then sexualising someone who behaves like a child???? I wanted to scream at her to stand up but also wanted to tell her to sit down in a deep grave and fill the grave with every copy of this book so no one would have to read it again.
This book gave NOTHING. Literally nothing at all. So much of nothing that it was painful to get through this and with my inability to DNF a book I ended up taking WEEKS to finish this and was unable to read anything else in the meantime because of it and gave me a shit reading month for February and March. Thanks for this. Ruined my ‘oliday.
