Have you ever succumbed to temptation and bought a packet of junk food only to be disappointed once the food was consumed and you don't feel good? Reading The Honey-Don't List by Christina Lauren is like buying a bag of expired non-brand potato chips from the Dollar Store. I think the only reason I kept reading it to the end was that Carey, the main character, had dystonia which is a movement disorder that I am familiar with because I know someone who has it. Carey works for Rusty and Melissa Tripp who are on the edge of becoming famous in home remodeling and design. Carey started working for them when she was 16 years old and when Rusty and Melissa were in love. Now, ten years later, the relationship between Rusty and Melissa has soured. On top of that all the room and furniture designs are done by Carey who gets zero credit. On top of that the Tripps don't pay her a living wage. Carey doesn't assert herself in this crazy situation that everyone can see is going to blow sky-high. This was a very predictable story.
