Should I continue with Little White Lies

[WhoNeedsaManOfTheWorld]

I'm not far into this book and I'm not liking it. I hate the way it is written and don't like the characters
It feels strangely flat and emotionless. I was swayed by the amount of stars it got but when I read further there are a lot of 1 🌟 reviews and complaints of too much padding

.

I am not going to carry on with it. I tried tonight and its awful
Please can someone just give me the spoiler. What is the, disappointing I expect if you've had to trawl through 300 pages of description, secret?
