A review by rachrreads
Hot Desk by Zara Stoneley

Did not finish book. Stopped at 18%.
DNF at 18%
I received an eARC from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.


I was so excited to read this book after seeing the synopsis. The idea of them sharing a desk (on different days) and leaving each other post-it notes? So cute!! But, after 5% I was already not a fan. The main character was going off on internal rants that did not add to the story. At one point she was talking to someone and the next she was having an internal monologue on something that happened years ago. Then it went back to the conversation after the long long long internal monologue. 

I decided to suck it up and continue, give the book a chance. It did not get better. The narrator still was blabbing and I found myself wanting to skim. At 18%, I finally decided it wasn’t worth it. This book was just not my taste and the writing was not up to par.
