Pretty Dead Queens

I recently picked up "Pretty Dead Queens" and unfortunately, my experience has been less than engaging. Despite reaching page 90 out of 326, I find myself utterly uninvested in the narrative. The plot lacks the hooks needed to captivate my interest, and I struggle to see where the story is heading. The writing, while not terrible, falls into the realm of just okay. It fails to evoke any sense of uniqueness or distinction, leaving the prose feeling mundane and uninspiring. "Pretty Dead Queens" lacks the spark of originality that sets apart memorable stories. The narrative feels formulaic, lacking the fresh and inventive elements that would make it stand out. Unfortunately, I don't feel any connection to the characters. Their development is lacking, making it challenging to muster any interest in their fates or the unfolding events. Considering these aspects, I've decided not to continue with the book as it fails to capture my attention or offer a unique and compelling narrative. I believe a stronger focus on plot innovation, character development, and writing flair could significantly enhance the overall appeal of "Pretty Dead Queens."
