The authenticity project

took forever to get through this, I feel bad. The characters were just a little too blah and the whole thing was predictable. 🥔

I just could not finish this book. It started with great promise and from there it just went down-hill. For me, it was becoming a frustrating train wreck. I had to bail out. I'm sure it is just me.

The book presents its characters as flawed, but their conflicts feel hastily manufactured and are far too easily solved. It’s a superficial quasi romance that aspires to be far more than it even begins to be. There is very little substance and whatever it starts to say gets lost. The author appears far too timid to manage to say anything of much interest.
