DNF. I was reading along fine, the main seemed a little overwrought about stuff, but she'd been through some shit and I was giving her as much room for grief as she needed so she could tell her story. Then around page 175 the novel did a thing so stupid and so implausible that I just stopped. What had come before sort of made some sense, though it took some rerouting of power to the disbelief suspenders; that move just broke me, if the author's going to do that sort of dumb shit I'll just stop now.
