That moment when you'r  reading a book and realise that the FMC is not your type of woman, for me that was when my favourite (side) character tries to kill the FMC, and you're actually hoping she dies......

We always fight and fuck.

That's the plot.  There are some reveals in there, somewhere.  Somewhere...

But that's mostly it.  Isolde and Adrian fight and fuck.  And do it again.  And again.

I was quite angry reading it, but anger that drives me to read the next one.  I'm disappointed in myself, truly, but I'm committed to the end.
