This book in a nutshell:

"There I was, surrounded by the reek of decay. The city lights cast everything in a bloody hue, reflecting off the skin her corpse. She stared up at me with big eyes and bigger titties and OH. OH GOD IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. MY PENIS! MY PENIS AHHHHHH!"

Okay, we're getting more depth in Moore now, I think I'm starting to see what the author intended to portray here so I'm invested.

So far Moore's character feels a bit like a caricature, just a man imagining what an 'angry feminist' acts like. But there's just enough of a hint of further depth that I'm not DNFing over it yet. We'll see where this goes.

Guys why are we allergic to subtext

Oh my god you guys I'm 80 pages into a Romantasy and I haven't found anything about it to hate, I'm so fuckin excited

So far this is like unseasoned meat and potatoes. I don't hate it, but I've read it 1,000 times before.

Is Diana going to spend this whole book sipping wine, doing yoga and fainting?

The pacing of this plot is like a slug squirming through salt. MY GOD.

Idk how I feel about this book but I swear to
God I am about to commit armed robbery on a vineyard WHY ARE THERE SO MANY DELECTABLE DESCRIPTIONS OF WINE?

Oh yay, a rapist!

Hate read? Baby this is a LOATHE read. Dear GOD.

I am sobbing.
I am devastated.
And I swear to god if Misaki doesn't fucking whoop Takeru's ass at least ONE TIME in this book I will SUE.
I hate that lil bitch 😭

Fun fact: I bought this book off the author at a convention. She wrote 'Nyama to you!' when she signed it for me. My dumbass didn't figure out until I looked at the glossary that it's a made-up word in the book...I thought I was just shit at Google translate 😭

I swear to fuck if this bitch gives the 'oh I'm so plain!' speech one more time I'm reaching into this book and strangling her.

Cackling at how this book acts like being 'plain' is some kind of debilitating illness 😂

The way Freida writes women is proof of internalized misogyny.
