Frostbite: A Werewolf Tale by David Wellington

3.0

Just one single plot throughout, was pretty bored with the audio until the reveal at 40% that
Cheyenne deliberately went out there to find the werewolf because he killed her dad
brought me back in and I stuck around to get to the end.
The Boyfriend List: 15 Guys, 11 Shrink Appointments, 4 Ceramic Frogs and Me, Ruby Oliver by E. Lockhart

I loved this as a teenager. As an adult, it's better than I expected, but definitely chock-full of that extreme cringe that only YA novels can possess. The therapist's advice was really valuable and I wish I had re-read this in my mid-twenties when I needed it before I learned all those lessons the hard way, but such is life.

Had some really great lines but was actively unpleasant to read.

It's just as twee as it sounds, but it's a heartwarming and even moderately inspirational read.
Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb

No rating for this one because I found it so boring that I was just tuning in and out of the audiobook at various intervals because it could not hold my attention.
The Tower by Nicole Campbell

Did not finish book. Stopped at 29%.
Absolutely nothing happened until page 112 and what did happen wasn't enough to keep me reading.

 
Rose dies in a car accident and from what I can see from the rest of the reviews, it's just a sad book from that point on, and I'm not real interested in a book that is half fluff and half pathos

Poorly edited, gratuitously violent, plotless, and disjointed.

Descent From Xanadu by Harold Robbins

Did not finish book. Stopped at 0%.
This was so bad I gave up a third of the way through. I can only assume based on the text that Harold Robbins never met a woman. And if he did ever meet one, I can only offer them my condolences.
