  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No

  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

cult x, more like cult sex. textbook case of #menwritingwomen, also the absence of consent made me very uncomfortable at times.

i loved the metaphysical lectures, wish the book had stayed that way to the very end. after them the book took an even stranger turn... did i understand anything? no. do i care? also no. am i disturbed? absolutely.
