Magnolia Parks

DID NOT FINISH: 37%
I gave this book an honest shot. I was ready to have fun. I had to stop reading because:
1. For a book with so much drama, it’s INCREDIBLY boring. Literally the same thing over and over again. Some reviewers call this a rollercoaster but it’s just a coin flipping over and over.
2. I truly can’t emphasize this enough—every scenario is so cringey. Like, pre-teen, fanfic, immature fantasy.
3. This is just my own bias talking, but I don’t find do-nothing rich people interesting in the slightest. I get that in the romance genre the economic fantasy is part of the game, but in this case it does nothing for me.
4. The excessive clothing descriptions killed me. I typically like an outfit description to add costume design to the movie playing in my head when I’m reading, but this was on another level. I understand that it’s her little quirk/skill, but really.
