I didn't expect that domestic violence is a huge part of the plot and I'm cool with it. I hate with my whole heart men who abuses women yet I think it's a great addition to the story per se.
"No one calls it violent when a man lays hands on his wife. They call it none of their business. But the moment a woman fights back - that's violence"

"Deep down, a kind part of me knows that my father likely endured similar violence at my grandfather's hands, and while that explains why he thinks violence is a solution, it does not excuse him from understanding the cost"
We think it's how the domestic violence works. The abuser was beaten in the childhood, that's why he beats his wife and children. But no, this explains only his behaviour yet not his actions

I've never read more abusive book in my whole life. There're just a hell lot of types of abuse - parents, husbands, just men.

It's like a breath of fresh air reading about a 30-year-old woman in a romantasy.
