We Sold Our Souls by Grady Hendrix
Did not finish book. Stopped at 6%.
The first Hendrix book I’ve DNFd 😭 it’s just sooo bad! It’s overly descriptive with a whole lot of nothing. The synopsis sounded amazing, classic crossroads deal of selling your soul to the devil for fame?! But the first 3 chapters are just the main character going about her shitty life as a hotel clerk. This sentence was the nail in the coffin for me: “her brain was in neutral, stewing in a skull full of sleep juice, and she could feel the sleepy smell rising up from her chest.” Nothing grabbed me and I was so bored and irritated with the amount of minute details that didn’t lead to any sort of plot set up or character development
