Found it incredibly uninteresting for me and not really getting to a point where my face was not frowning

DID NOT FINISH: 50%

The audio voice saying these words was just so annoying the storyline I'm like get to the point. The parts that were suppose to be sexy or serious i laughed like wtf am i listening to/reading? I paused to see if i would come back and I am just like yes its bipoc but so not for me. This feels like straight porn.

For bookclub did not feel compelled to finish wanted to read other books enjoyed the half I read found it sad and familiar. Confused with so many characters. May return in the future. Audio might be better for me with an intellectual read.
