I just wanted to see the summary scene and then dip, but I couldn't even make it that far–the mental pollution was just too much. I knew this was going to be bad going in, but I didn't know it was going to be this bad.

The author struggles with ironing out details and maintaining the integrity of the story. Vague settings without further explanation, poor story flow, too much of the author talking and not nearly enough showing, etc. The small details keep adding up, leading to a situation where the story just feels worse the farther it goes.

I don't even know where to start criticizing the brainrot I just read. All I know is that it is way harder trying to find something to praise about this novel than it is to find something to criticize. This is the kind of 1 star novel that makes me think 'perhaps I was too harsh on you' to other novels I rated 1 star.

Subpar where its not average. The author is just really focused on feeding the main character benefits and basically neglects everything else in terms of story.
