Like truly the idea of any woman who just went through a very scary experience where she was kidnapped by a man who was going to rape her and then hours after that her wanting to have sex with a stranger she has known for 27 hours is so incredibly idiotic that it must be written by a man

“Vittoria pressed her bare legs against his beneath the table and fixed him with a sultry stare.”

This was so obviously written by a man and you could cover up the author’s name to where I didn’t know and based off that sentence alone I would know it was written by man because truly that is horrible writing

“ And now… I suppose you want your reward”
“I’m… Sorry“
“Were adults, Robert. You can admit it. You feel longing. I see it in your eyes. A deep, carnal hunger. I feel it too. And that craving is about to be satisfied.”
“It is?”
“Completely.”
she held up a room service menu.
“I ordered everything they’ve got”

I really hate that and I know it’s supposed to be funny but it’s not

“No Love is greater than that of a father for his son.“

I can think of so many other forms of Love that are greater than the Love between a father and son but I get it that’s supposed to be God and his love for mankind but I still dislike it

EW. So this room full of 80 year-old virgins are not going to respect or listen to a woman but the minute a voice filled with more testosterone speaks up they’ll move out of the way and respect him.

Yeah, I’m sorry. No, I’m never going to take a church full of virgins seriously that’s not something that’s ever gonna happen in my life and I think it’s weird that other people take it seriously

I’m not gonna say it’s bad writing to wave away the illuminati by saying that Camerlengo just brought it back to install faith in mankind, but frankly, I do think that is bad writing, but I digress

“Their bodies locked, as if they had known each other for years.”

This entire book has made me so uncomfortable because I can tell it’s written by a man but I’ve yet to be so uncomfortable as I am reading that sentence genuinely if you are incapable of writing any scene that’s supposed to be seen as intimate then don’t write it or have a woman write it please and thank you

“He kissed her again, more passionately, and she pressed against him, losing herself in his embrace.”

Is this guy a 40 year-old virgin? Like seriously, you are so thirsty for a kiss?

“He strolled directly to her and wrapped her in his arms. When he pressed his lips to hers, it was an impulsive, longing kiss filled with thankfulness.”

This is such a sentence written by a man and also this kiss really pisses me off
