This story is ridiculous. First of all, the author makes every newbie writing mistake possible. She tells instead of shows. The narrator is unlikeable. Her metaphors and similes make no sense. The sexual discriptions are fucking disgusting and read like they were written by a horny, virgin 15-year-old. I'm sick of the whole "hurr durr MC is a nymphomaniac" trope in erotica. This novel is apparently supposed to document why her nymphomania is bad, but does exactly the opposite. Bitch is having the time of her life with, like, 0 consequences.

I'm pretty sure the author made her own publishing company because she was unable to hook an agent with her god-awful manuscript. Her website is down, by the way. I heard she was trying to turn this trash into a movie and enter it into the Sundance Film Festival. HA! That never came to fruition. I wonder why.

I feel bad for her. Obviously she has ambitions, but hasn't put in the effort to git gud at writing. Take some classes. Go to workshops. Read articles. Pay for a goddamn beta reader and editor. Christ, I thought 50 Shades of Grey was bad, but this story is actually worse. This is just Grade 0 fap material for people who don't know any better.
