Love and Other Conspiracies by Mallory Marlowe
Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.

The main character was soooo boring. Her whole personality was "I'm not good enough" until the love interest keeps saying yes you are, then she swoons, then goes "no! He can't love me, I'm not good enough!" The cryptids and conspiracy theory theme brought me in, the main characters bored me out.
