Hooked by Emily McIntire
2.0
this is really just 400 pages of badly written porn
I feel torn because this book had so much potential, i was excited for the anticipated dark peter pan retelling but instead I just read a misogynistic white male be horny for Wendy for the whole book. Also everytime he called her his “pet” and “darling” i practically threw up in mouth. Is this supposed to be cute or sumth? it just comes across as condescending.
Yeah the plot was awfully structured - the pacing for the was extremely slow until the last 25% when everything happened, although that plot twist at the end and wendy becoming such a bad b was ACTUALLY SO GOOD, that and the spice is what brought this review up from a 1 to a 2 stars for me.
