- You (You #1) by Caroline Kepnes: This was really cool for about 33% of the book. I was disturbed and freaked out, then Joe just got more and more annoying. He was whiny and there was way too much inner dialogue (yes, I know it's in second person in his brain, but come on). The action/scary parts weren't as scary as they could have been because they were just glossed over. In the end, I was just underwhelmed.
- The Grownup by Gillian Flynn: Why did I bother with this? I HATE Gone Girl, what made me think I would like this one? This book is like, "How many plot twists can I fit into 80 pages?" the game. Ugh.
- A Midsummer Night's Scream by R.L. Stine: You'd think that the most acclaimed children's horror writer would write an awesome YA horror novel. Well, you'd be wrong. I found the characters to be shallow and uninteresting and the plot tried it's darnedest to be an interpretation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, but it just falls flat.
- And I Darken by Kiersten White: I really wanted to like this book, knowing that it's LGBTQIA and female villain protagonist and all that jazz, but I felt that nothing really happened. I decided to listen to it, but I felt like it was going no where. I think I got about five hours in and I was just bored. I ended up DNF'ing it.
