the first of the Illuminatus trilogy. started reading it because it was one of my dad's favorites and we usually have pretty similar taste but i got slightly less than 3 chapters in and gave up. Not only is the story all over the place but the formatting is so bizarre that it makes it difficult to keep track of when there is a scene or POV change.

For reasons beyond fathoming, multiple people thought that the perfect gift for a teenage girl (me) who loved reading (specifically sci-fi, fantasy, and horror) was harlequin romance novels. Like no hate to those who enjoy them but I sincerely loathe the bodice-ripper genre as a whole.
