After World by Debbie Urbanski
Did not finish book. Stopped at 11%.

I could not get into it. The premise seemed interesting even with the AI generated time stamps and computer-style prompts sprinkled through but I did not find it engaging at all and found it was not for me.

Murder by Degrees by Ritu Mukerji
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

This is far too slow for me. I didn’t think there was any good character development and the plot wasn’t engaging at all

This takes place prior to the contents of Legends & Lattes and I can honestly say you don’t need to have read the first book in order to read this one (other than the epilogue content). This was cutesy again like the original book. I think it was my mood but I didn’t feel as engaged in this story until the second half
