I really tried with ACOTAR, but I felt the same thing, out of touch. Then my next thought was "If this is in touch, then out of touch it is!" My cousin had so excitedly recommended it to me when I told her that I love reading High Fantasy, and it made me feel like a snob when I told her I DNF it. I will say of all the viral recommendations I have ever gotten Red Rising by Pierce Brown more than lived up to the hype, and the audiobook is a master class performance by Tim Gerard Reynolds.
Yes I totally get this feeling like a snob because I’ve hated the book. I’m the same, I don’t really care if I’m out of touch, not going to invest that much time in a book I don’t enjoy! Thanks for the recommendation I’ll check it out x
