    Thankfully I can’t remember the title or author of the book. I only got six pages into it before I put it in the “return to the library” pile.

    I think it was supposed to be a fantasy novel set in a medieval European alternate world.

    It was first person and the MCs train of thought was trope and cliché filled drivel, including a multi paragraph description of an alcoholic drink made from potatoes and turnips. The author called it “voka.”

    That was the final straw.
