Everyone has different tastes in books, so here are some things I like and what I don't.
Likes:
Main character that has some confidence. If an MC is constantly navel gazing about how lucky he or she is to have Sally (or Sammy) Love Interest actually like them, well that's going to get old quick.
First person POV
Characters that feel like they're real
Dislikes:
POV shifts - If you have a book which is essentially 2 or 3 stories which you jump between I'm going to drop it pretty fast. It breaks the narrative, it pulls me out of one story bubble and puts me in another. I'm old, it annoys me to have the story pause and have a different one start.
Stories where I dislike the main character.
