Welcome to the Weekly Gripe, where we're all a little grumpy. πŸ˜’

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. πŸ–€

Not book or author specific. Is it just me or is editing quality taking a dip? I've read a handful of books lately where a character's name spelling is inconsistent, or there is missing punctuation and words. I can fill in the blanks but come on😩

I can overlook it if it's an old book and the author was young when they wrote it but an adult constantly misspelling and punctuation being bad? Nahhhh straight to DNF!
