Welcome to Litsy!

#Unpopularopinion. It took me a long time to read this book and that‘s probably because it‘s so boring and annoying. Frank and Cleo are married on a whim and this book is about their based-on-nothing marriage and the friends surrounding the couple. Everyone is beautiful and doing drugs and alcohol and anti depressants. I didn‘t see the point. At all. #Roll100

my weekend read…another OT day…and so far enjoying it #audiobook #readinglife #readinggoal #unpopularopinion UPDATE: DNF…had such high hopes but find myself drifting and kept restarting chapters—i think i am officially in a reading slump

#unpopularopinion time. Repetitive AF. I knew going in that this was spicy, which is fine, but there was sexy times in every chapter except for 2, maybe 3. And it just seemed like the MCs did literally nothing but bang it out, so I don‘t buy that they formed an emotional connection. When they did talk, it was mostly about each other‘s private parts. And if I never hear the words cock, beaver, or monster ever again, that would be fine with me!

I appreciated what the author is trying to do here but for me she wasn‘t successful. I didn‘t buy the central relationship - there was too little to show how they came to care for one another. It‘s a trope I rarely enjoy or find convincing so maybe it‘s just me. The writing is good and the background story is really important. I‘m extra critical when I think a book could be truly great but misses the mark, so only a so-so.

read all 5…good premise but the stories were super redundant in my opinion…my two favorite stories were the lovers and the farewell… #unpopularopinion #audiobook #readinggoal #readinglife #aapimonth #serieslove2025

This is an #unpopularopinion and I feel terrible about it. Renner‘s accident was horrific and his recovery nothing short of miraculous. This book, however, was so repetitive and Renner‘s insistence that he was responsible for all of the pain, fear, and stress his family experienced witnessing the accident and its aftermath bordered on performative martyrdom. I hope he‘s in therapy for the psychological trauma.

With 76% read & 9 chapters remaining…this is a solid DNF for me. No matter what I did, I could not focus or keep track of everything that was going on. Too wordy for my tastes - reminded me of reading Shakespeare in HS😬🫨

I very much enjoyed the group read setting, just not this book😂🤭

#unpopularopinion Oh how I wish the inside of the book was anywhere near as beautiful as the exterior. It has sprayed edges and exquisite end papers. The text? It did not work for me at all. The writing feels choppy and juvenile and I already dislike the MC. 😭
