Query: Painful to read

Did she not have an editor??So boring! Terrible plot, ridiculous and unrealistic dialogue that the author obviously thought sounded clever but really came off as stilted and clumsy. I had zero interest in these characters from the 2nd chapter on. I had to force myself to read the second half of the book. Now I'm just pissed because I believed the other reviews and bought the whole series.I'd return them if I could.Don't bother with this book or this author. I certainly will avoid all her work in the future.
