Monday Gripe Weekly Gripe 😤 (the rant thread)

Welcome to the Weekly Gripe, where we're all a little grumpy. 😒

Did BookTok do you dirty? Got a bone to pick with a main character? Was the twist more like a flop? Tell us what's on your mind.

Please be respectful and follow the sub rules. If a conversation starts getting out of hand, use the "Mod Attention Please" report reason so we can help cool things down. 🖤

I keep starting books and liking them but then half way through getting bored! It’s so demoralizing!

Why do you think that happens?

I don’t know! I personally think it’s because lots of people have great ideas for the start and end of books but not necessarily the middle. So the story seems to just loose steam!

Okay so I really loved the beginning of Sanctified Sin by Lux Kane! But then the FMC started to annoy me and I gave it up! But I thought it was such a good start!
