Status Updates From Fair Play (All's Fair, #2)

How sweet it is to return to these beloved characters.

Elliot was angry rightfully so because the thing that Tucker did was wrong. Tucker was in the wrong to make decisions for someone to take someone’s agency away and then instead of communicating and just apologizing for that he forcefully violate Elliot‘s body and then tell Elliot gaslight Elliot into thinking that Elliot misunderstood something this is a horrible book

I don’t even know why I’m crying right now. I just feel so bad for Elliot and anyone that read this book and think this is healthy or OK when you’ve established a trust in the bedroom in this kind of system where you’ve let go of control it’s difficult to take that control back in the bedroom so you always give consent outside the bedroom because you know it’s hard for you to get consent inside.

OK, this just ruined this whole series for me because I don’t think I can keep reading. This is just mainly violating. I can understand why people have a huge issues when they write stories like this because the violation it’s so abusive it’s too abusive Tucker abused Elliott‘s trust and violated his stress in his body, but it’s been written as though this is normal and this is how it’s supposed to be.

Yeah, no it is not OK. This is being written as if it’s a good thing that Tucker is doing this to Elliot. This is not how this works. You don’t get to have a disagreement outside the bed. you don’t get to control your partner outside the bedroom by using their body when you know that they have issues with consent when you’re inside the bedroom that is just a violation

… And in this disagreement Tucker is using his ability to be able to take control of Elliot‘s body without Elliot’s consent. Elliot is going along with it because he’s so used to it, but he doesn’t want to do it. I don’t know where this is going and I’m terrified because if this is played out like it’s supposed to be OK it’s not Tucker is crossing the boundary that is so it’s so hard to continue

This is getting really painful to read if I’m understanding what’s happening correctly, this is so painful, Tucker has established with Elliott’s permission the dynamics they are having in bed, which is trust where Elliot let’s go of control and talk take it and the pleasure each other that way. Now I let him Tucker are having a huge disagreement…

Wow, I really love Elliot so far. I don’t get what someone commented was saying love Tucker and thinking Elliot was too hot or something. I love Elliot’s reactions. I love Alex perspective. He is healthy emotionally. Tucker has a lot of toxic thinking when it comes to relationships and control. I am loving this so far. Elliot for the win.

I don’t understand people that like Tucker, he’s an asshole! “Live by the sword die by the sword” to say that about your partner’s, your boyfriend‘s father is so heartless. How are the reviews below love Tucker? I am so with Elliot so far, Elliott is the only person acting like a reasonable person would. Tucker is not lovable right now. I hope it gets better. I hope he redeemed himself.

Elliot really needs to get out of his head. Maybe have some therapy too.

*4.5 Stars* rounded up

I need to stop reading this at bedtime. Two late nights in a row on top of a nasty cold are doing me no favours at all.

Just did a re-read of Fair Game to remind me of the plot so far. Let’s get on with this one.

Mccully (audio listener so bare with me) is a creeper. Sir. You're old enough to know better

Can I take Tucker? Cause what is it that Elliot wants?! The man is obsessed with him and hes still throwing a tantrum!

"I breathe better when you're close by." Tucker! I'm just a they/them! Stop it! My heart!

Tucker you make it hard to root for you.

Tucker is funny.
