  • Powerless

    January 18, 2024 Powerless by Lauren Roberts has blown up on TikTok. Needing to find out for myself what the hype was about, I purchased the book, and a week later, I dove head first in. At first, I liked the book until I noticed spelling and grammar errors. At first, it didn’t bother me…
