it was ok
bookshelves: postponed

Don’t know if I can be bothered to continue this.
At the very least need to postpone. After the last one, the whole thing is making me too grumpy.

Don’t know if the highlights will work, didn’t on the other.
Idiotic FMC Assassin Ha ha! Explosives expert, but also impatient, immature, and flighty� seriously!

A MMC who needs it spelled out that making out with another girl while they straddle his lap, and then lick his chest, is not okay when involved with said FMC.. 😳
Then our oh so intelligent FMC feels guilty for making him feel bad, and APOLOGISES TO HIM You really have to laugh at that, or totally lose it.

There are several more instances of stupidity, but couldn’t be bothered spelling out.

So yeah, time out.

Helen 2.0 So disappointing when the author promises a badass heroine and then she turns out to be a childish idiot! Yikes. Sorry this didn't work out.

YES YES EXACTLY!

I can do the whole Bond OTT silliness [sometimes it’s more fun], but stupidity, lack of logic, or basic intelligence, in an area that requires a higher standard..?

She made herself standout when her job required her to blend.
She left distinctive ringtones on her phone, when she was supposed to be hiding her identity.
She supposedly trained since a child to be elite assassin etc., but has numerous psych issues, but no counselling? Cause that wouldn’t interfere right 🤷‍♀️�

The longer I think on this, the worse it gets in my head, 🤣
New book, I think it’s time for a comedy 🥳

I can do the whol..."


Yeah, over the top drama, I can be fine with. I don't mind tropeyness. But don't make your heroine dumb as bricks in order to create drama!! So stupid.

Hope you find a good romcom!!
