My Thoughts

Really wanted to like this, but I just couldn’t get into it.
I DNF at 15% after my soul had slowly started to leech from my body.
_________________
The main character was annoying and made me want to launch my kobo through a wall due to the incessant page after
page of self love attitude and ‘love me, only me’ babbling, ‘aren’t I beautiful’ tone.

Like I get it, just shut up. I’ve never been so annoyed with a character in my life.

I understand that was the intention of the author, because the character was supposed to be a vain narcissist, that had a
stick up her own butt, but I just couldn’t deal with it any longer.
_________________
The world building was decent from what I could tell between the vanity ramblings page after page.

I wish there had been more plot to entertain me instead of the over described fallen angels babbling.
I enjoyed the other characters a little better (not much}.
I could envision them as grovelling, pathetic bottom feeders.
Needy little souls craving her attention.

I honestly wish I’d liked this book more, because I thought it sounded great.
It just didn’t follow through, leaving me questioning the ratings :/

_________________
The author definitely portrayed the characters well, so this is not a reflection on the writing itself. I just do not like
such whiny self absorbed characters like that.

So, this is a non-recommendable book for me. 
Thank you for the opportunity to read this.
