It started off strong..... but as I went on, more and more of the stories weren't grabbing me so I wasn't picking up the kindle to carry on.
So dnf is the only way forward.

Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

I was seriously not vibing with anything. The setting or the charactors. This was second attempt, thought I did get further this time, was still not for me
The trying to be close to but not the current real royals/presidential folks that jarred with me.
And it feels like things are going to be forced in the relationship that is going to happen.
I do like a good young adult romance, but this one's setting just didn't vibe
Maybe I should stick to fantasy worlds/dystopia/apocalyptic for where they are set then a slightly off our current one.
