FUCKKK OFF I have a huge juicy schlong for this book to suck on seriously. WHAT DOES THIS ADD TO THE BOOK?

one character (thats introduced for no reason) mentions that her and her husband are genderfluid, the husband disagrees, and then the mc immediately disengages from the conversation and leaves <3 (and they were like eating at a table together he asked for his tea to go)

30 pages in and the mc (gruff white detective dude) is watching a "pornographic movie" because he misses his dead wife

i'm 6 pages into this and even though I've never met the author I can tell exactly what brand of white man he is, stop quoting the Tao for the love of god
