Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty
1.0

If I wanted to listen to the most annoying unlikeable people argue and snipe for pages and pages, I'd just go home for Christmas and see my real family.

I don't think a single character was redeemable, either with being the worst ever or just annoying as hell. Even the so-called main character Joy was absolutely NOT a Joy to listen to her snipe and snipe about her kids not having kids and how Terrible it is that she's not a grandma. I hated every character so much I was hoping she WAS dead just so she'd shut up. When we get a reveal of one character being the way she is because she was abused and starved as a child, I just didn't care.

And the "twist" ending was so bad I almost stopped.

If you like the most annoying people on earth and tennis to a god awful degree, you'll probably like this book.
