So...I'm very ambivalent about this.
Please AH don't make this book islamophobic/arabphobic.
PLEASE.
Imma give her the benefit of the doubt and try this. We shall see.

Jane aka Coughy019 (Safety info included) Same! Please none of that. Like, I'm sure characters are going to be toxic, arrogant, assholes, and have complexes about sexuality, but let's have equal opportunity here! No attacking religion/race/cultures.


Smutty  Sully So far I'm noticing careless, silly generalizations that I'd categorize as ignorance rather than bigoted. Still annoying in my book, but nothing necessarily against Islam or Muslims. More like a general lack of understanding of the Middle East. 🙄

Ignorance is teh right word I think. Lazy research and stereotyoes. It pissed me off because if you take those away it's a good book.
