Well that was profoundly fucked up

God bless librarians 🙌

Well fucking rip out my heart why don't you.
Chapter two "Husband and Wife" is hitting like a feelings gut punch. Haven't stopped crying since I first read "I got lost."

On talking about the decisions made around childcare: "Because of these wider social consequences, Governments almost always try to devise policies that help families raise their children well." Must be nice. Where is it America? Because clearly that hasn't been a priority in years, if ever.

Honestly don't really know what to think of this book so far. It's interesting, but it feels like the viewpoint of the writer is biased towards a more colonialist mindset because of her word choice. The main one that keeps popping up is the continual use of differentiation between "developed", "developing" and "underdeveloping" countries. I also laughed out loud when she referred to China as a developing country.

This is definitely a DARK smut book. The plot isn't great, but I appreciate the drama of this book. I liked the story and the two main characters in this book way more than the first book of this series I read (God of Wrath).

This is one of the most outlandish and insulting books I've ever read and it's fucking hilarious

Wow that preface was patronizing. And the whole "Death to the weakling, wealth to the strong!" is so cringey and dramatic... we'll see how this goes.
