Query: Just awful

This book was awful. I love books, all types of books, and like different writing styles. I hated this book the entire way through. I kept reading thinking it would get better but it didn't. I love characters with a dry sense of humor and love sarcasm, but this book just didn't have either despite trying desperately to try to have the character come off that way. The character was unlikable and the writing was, well, boring. I regret spending my money on this book.
