I've already lost three regressions, and I'm not even halfway through this godforsaken novel!
Traditional novels always have a ridiculous word count.
Hopelessly Ever After, the story she was currently trapped in, was inspired by those long-winded classics - meaning it was wordy as hell, and each chapter was basically a novella on its own.
Who even knew how many words she had left to suffer through?
The real plot hadn't even started yet.
Evelyn hadn't made any friends, and things wouldn't truly kick off until chapter four.
Right now, she was still stuck in chapter three where the only thing happening was social politics and endless gossip.
If her hunch was correct, chapter three would probably end when it became mandatory to establish one's own faction or society.
In the novel, Evelyn had tried reaching out, testing the waters, but no one was receptive.
And, of course, the villainess was always there to make her life harder.
