Sick of reading books where...

[JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows]

A woman takes a cheating husband back at the end, mostly because she's decided that she's on a higher moral level where she can forgive him, and he was just a silly man who couldn't help but chase a bit of skirt, bless him.

Ruined books for me lately (I won't name the books themselves to save the spoilers) for books by Marian Keyes, Liane Moriarty and Lisa Jewell. Otherwise fantastic authors!

I think I've honestly never read a book where this has happened. I'd read some other authors for a while

Haven't read one like that. Thank God.

But I did recently have to give up on one recently because the female main character ended up with an idiot. She was married to an arsehole and had an affair with the idiot, who was torturing himself after the death of his family. The idiot then disappeared on her on a journey of self discovery. She had a bit of an epiphany, realised she kept falling for broken men and trying to fix them. Started doing a lot of healing etc.

But then she decided to go after the idiot. Mainly because he wasn't as bad as all of the other arseholes in the small town where she lived???!! I didn't even make it to the end. I gave up at that point.

...Different points of views.

So many books I’ve read recently are written through the viewpoints of different people (and/or flashbacks). Some are written well, but others aren’t. It can take a while to suss out who is who, or you just get used to reading through x’s viewpoint, when the story stop, and suddenly you become y. Frustrating.
