You wanted to read the book, you were excited to crack it open, you came into it with good faith and anticipation... but you ended up dnf-ing it. Which book and why?

Mine was The Maid by Nita Prose. It was for my book club and looked like a fun murder mystery. Instead I got instant manic-pixie-dream-neurodivergent-girl vibes, and I noped out before the crime scene was even found.

Oh, interesting. I wonder how my screen reader will play with that. OK I’m gonna go try it. Thank you for your help.

you can try it now here, i'll let you know if it works or if you need to fix something.

new reddit has the option to do it for you, but it might be more difficult to find and use it as it requires you highlight the text and then hit the spoiler button.
