AI almost put this book down

My uncensored thoughts of this (audio) book are:

1 – Why do authors think they are good voice actors?
2 – Where did the plot go?
3 – What happened to character development?
4 – Need to have an antagonist that is not totally hidden
5 – When things happen, they are seen, but when a character keeps “noticing,” it becomes a filter

The internal thoughts of the main character were always echoed in the recording, which started to become old really quick. Yes I know this is a YA, but even a YA should hold the basics of plot, sub-plot, and character development. If you want something that will entertain and pull you through a story, don’t pick this one up.

And if you’re wondering about the title, yes, there is fog. Don’t remember any fireflies, but there was a lot of fog.

Note – The publisher of the book is the author under Aspen and Thron Press
