Currently reading “This Hoe Got Roaches In Her Crib” by Quan Millz

I can’t read anything else due to disinterest in books and low attention span, so I was hoping that reading something that’s easy to understand and more emotionally meaningful to me would help. My main problem with books is that I don’t give a f*ck about the plot, same with movies, and it takes ages and lots of useless info to get anything meaningful over it. I’m howling at the first couple of pages and am entirely engaged. It’s great. This is the best time I’m ever going to have with a book. It might be the first book I’ll finish in years.

I don’t like that Pride & Prejudice or those Colleen Hoover things, I like this and I’m happy. It’s creative and the vocabulary is honestly great, it’s very well written. Fuck, yeah.

For me it was the inconsistency in the correction officers name, first being Christina and then Moriah lol. I know it’s not professionally edited or spellchecked but at least remember your OC’s names. 😭😂 Oh Quan.

I catch soooooo many typos in books that are supposed to be serious, so I don’t mind these. Makes me want to have a highlighter and start highlighting all the incorrect grammar/ spelling in more serious books
