I just hate that I can’t dnf books 🤧 it was so bad I don’t even know where to start. I didn’t like anything apart from maybe Midori’s character. This book is so misogynistic I don’t think the author has ever talked to a woman in real life. Also what’s with all the weird random sex scenes that felt so awkward I literally had to squirm and visibly cringe while reading them. And why does he use the word “penis” that many times ? WHAT WAS THE REASON? Oh and also the scene with 13yr girl ???
