2:57:43 [<37m] Nicola [37m>] - This story is boring. Definitely a Gatsby Retelling. If I can find another "beach" book I'm quitting. I have very limited reading time and this makes me want to play music instead. These chapters get longer and longer, and half of it is mindless chatter, this time about race cars and an emotional affair, it could have been 4 minutes, it took half an hour and this chapter is still only 5

4:15:09 Nicola - I found another beach book on my TBR, but it’s longer than this one, so I'm going to stick with this one. It's dull but I think it can improve.

1:48:57 Juliana - This had a promising start but the last chapter turned into a modern-day Gatsby and I'm not a fan of that story so a Retelling isn't my jam. The 3-star streak may continue.
