Books I Didn't Finish in May

Follow Me:  I gave up on this one at about 30%.  I didn't like the multiple points of view.  The characters were self centered and boring.  I felt like the "Instagram" star was a cliche and not realistic.   It's really hard to like a book when you don't care about any of the characters. I flipped to the end and was correct in what was going to happen.   Also, if you move into a new apartment and the lock doesn't work..buy a new one and bill the landlord.

The Summer Villa:  I ended up DNFing this one fairly early on.  I didn't like that main character at all.  I had little patience for an 'Influencer" who feels she is not a good mother, so she spends zero time at home instead of working through her issue and bonding with her child.

The Socialite:  I have come to the conclusion that I just don't enjoy books that take place in WWII.  I DNF'd this one about 25% in.  I didn't like any of the characters.  I had a hard time buying the premise.  It definitely wasn't for me.

Breath Like Water:  I was definitely not the audience for this book.  I do enjoy a lot of YA books, I just didn't enjoy this one.  It's definitely a case of it's me not you.  I have kids and if I ever had a coach or teacher treat my child like the coach did in this book, I would never be able to sit back and let it happen.  I couldn't get past that.

To Have and to Hoax:  I had heard such good things about this book.  I was hoping it would be fun and flirty.  I stopped at about 50%.  I found this couple infuriating. Both characters were immature.  I can only take the non-communication scenario for so long.  When James started flirting with another woman in front of his wife, I was done. I don't care if was a set up, that was gross and turned me off of the book.

Sister Dear:  This book was really boring.  The main character was annoying and a "poor me".  Maybe it is the current global situation, but I was just not in the right head space for a character like that.  I did skim to the end.  I'm glad I didn't finish it, because I would not have been happy had I invested time into a character only for it to end the way it did.
