By what you wrote, you DID give this... THING a fair chance. DITCH this book, and block the author if you have followed them.
Hope you listen to my advice before you begin to hear a stalk of celery speaking to you in your head.
A book challenge is not worth losing your mind. Jesus, Buddha, and Sarah J. Maas.

Oh god you've got me giggling.




Aww, thank you so much friend. I managed to read the first two books but a new job has made me lag a little on the week 3 book. WIsh me luck!!
So, I'm doing a book-per-week challenge and have 3 days to get ahead on this book before its week "officially" starts. The issue is, I picked it up, read chapter one, and am actively avoiding it. There's something that's rubbing me the wrong way. I just tried to read chapter 2, got only a few pages in, and am already nitpicking it (feels fanfiction-y, repetitive sentence structure, the girl is in love with a voice in her head, compares his name to a vegetable when she first learns it). I want to DNF, I really do, but I also believe in giving books a fair chance.
My choice is basically; try to get ahead and power through, risking not finishing it at all, or DNF now and pick a different book for this week despite not giving this one that much of a chance.
Like I said, if anyone can share their own experiences or thoughts on this, please let me know! This is a total dilemma to me.
