“perhaps there is a thin line between a govener and a slave” is absolutely insane writing. i cannot believe it

in continuation of the oversexualization of curvy bodies!!! this book is feeling a little smurfette syndrome-y to me. the only time female characters come in is to die or have sex with one of the men. Bryce is the hot fun boy-ish feminine one that they all have crushes on / would die for. weird

HOW LONG DO I NEED TO WAIT FOR THEM TO FINALLY BONE JESUS CHRIST

i’m not sure if it’s because i read the first one hardcover and i’m doing split audiobook & hardcover for the second one but it feels like it’s moving so much faster … or maybe it’s that more is happening?

“she was a stupid horny idiot” has gotta be my favorite quote from this series

WHAT IS SUNBALL!!!!!! is it baseball? football? a third thing??? for all of the detailed world building she really avoids filling us in here

she mentioned my biggest fear (fingernail torture) twice in the first chapter, we are not off to a great start
