Deanna is 50% done with He Who Fights with Monsters 5 (He Who Fights with Monsters, #5)
Now we ramp up the stakes, sprinkle in a few ancient cosmic beings, add a dash of plot armor, spill in the whole container of melodrama, crack in 3-4 cripplingly life-altering traumatic events, and bake at 400F until crispy on the edges and hard as steel on the inside. Behold, Jason's character development.

He Who Fights with Monsters 5 (He Who Fights with Monsters, #5)

Deanna
Deanna is on page 100 of 379 of A Touch of Darkness (Hades x Persephone Saga, #1)
The plot is weak so far, and Persephone is very unlikable. Instead of portraying an intelligent and uncertain young woman who is testing her independence and finding confidence like the author is attempting, she comes across as spoiled and brash, not thinking her actions through at all and acting surprised and angry when people and events don't suit her whims. Disappointed but willing to continue.

Deanna is 2% done with The Turn: The Hollows Begins with Death (The Hollows #0)
Already a disappointment. Not only is this book about the elves *gag* but the main character is Rachel 2.0 with even less common sense, if that can be believed.

I am still waiting for this to get interesting. So far its adult Harry Potter with a worse MC and mentions of a Narnia rip off book within the universe. Its not bad enough that I want to give up, but Q's objectification of women might get me to that point if he doesn't chill.

The MC is a whiny creep. I hope we get swift character development or more POVs to make this more bearable. Are all 17 year old boys this creepy?

Deanna is starting The Ex Hex (The Ex Hex, #1)
Why does the audio book narrator end every sentence like its a question, even if its not? Enjoying the book, but she's driving me nuts.

Jenks is amazing. He will probably be my favorite character throughout this series, unless another fast talking rogue type emerges.

I may quit this series. I thought the Male Gaze was nearly eradicated but now it is back with a vengeance. Guy cant even keep from ogling his best friends 17 YO daughter.... it is very frustrating because I actually enjoy the story. I just hate this skeevy misogynistic side of Harry that rears its horny head all to often and ruins the whole book.
