rape joke!!!!! "i'll end up as somone's prison wife" fuck!!!

love how hank just... forces amanda to go to prom with a guy she doesn't want to bc he's disabled (w a lazy eye) and calls it "community service".... fkn ableism

obligatory "messy girl gets a beautiful makeover and becomes smoking hot" scene. god this is becoming one cliche after another

oh man, Reul is making hank's abusive dad look like a Saint in this narrative. he's not Abusive, he condemns what happened to peyton... like he didn't do that to monica or hank

i kinda want to say that?? peyton is being Fridged?? like, her abuse is only being used to have Hank react ??? if this book didn't have some bomb writing i would have to drop it like it's Hot

the Sense of Entitlement from hank jfc..... "Hold up. You show up at my house at in the middle of the night half dressed, your hair all hacked off, hysterically crying, and you won't tell me what happened?" um no?? she has the right to Be Quiet

it takes ~150 pages before peyton's abusive home situation is brought up again..

i'm not even messing around- the fact that peyton is an a domestic abuse and neglect situation is 100% ignored. like, everything is about Hank and the Magical things that Peyton does for him. ignoring the fact that she's literally being abused at home

this book is Rampant with misogyny and excusing abuse- both domestic and child abuse. like, hank's father is an alcoholic who abuses his son and past girlfriend. it's just treated as his 'bad moods' though. also, rn, hank is trying to convince his dad to take monica back like??? she didn't leave for her own safety?? after he called her a whore??

whoop gotta unfollow someone that used the r slur in their comic review for a character they didn't like :))))))))))) Gross

The fact that Peyton is so offended by Hank saying she's not is friend is wild because they've been friends for... three days? maybe? a week has gone by and they've talked during three of those- one of which she blackmailed him

this whole misogynistic "Amanda is a bad person because she doesn't like Peyton >:(" thing is nonsense because. amanda is pretty regular and peyton is her neighbor that burns things in her backyard and chants so.... if the main dude didn't know so much about Peyton he really wouldn't be that judgy

this pseudo intelligent, john green bullshit about the duality of man. main character is all. "more real than anyone i know" yeah right

misogyny and the whole 'old bands are better than new music bc new music is TRASH and our generation is DUMB' ew

a big olllll infodump on peyton's relationship with her mother on this page. call back to the 'mpdg' having a mom that treats her more like a sister and a Broken Home background that the main dude character has to save her from

oh god, also peyton takes random photos of people??? what kind of creepy "it's not stalking it's just me being special :)))))" pixie girl nonsense

misogyny :)
"What'd you expect? Pink walls and a fluffy bedspread with unicorns and rainbows? Five Seconds of Summer posters?" lmao should've known this would come with the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope......

reminder to label under 'child abuse'

god, Reul is going full blast with the manic pixie dream girl trope. straight from the 'i knew you were special, hank kirby' part. random, wildly interesting but unstable girl meets up with boring saltine cracker guy, Changes His Life. gag me

"It's... It's like they transform from being beautiful to ugly and distorted. There's a different kind of beauty in that, I think. Everything beautiful can be ugly, and everything ugly can be beautiful. It's all perspective." oH MAN I DIDN'T KNOW THIS WAS A MANIC PIXIE DREAM GIRL BOOK.

"In this town, she was the only one who thought she could have secrets. Everything was hers. Most of all, me."
note: put in warning for mental/emotional manip/abuse

"dreamed we shared a phantom boyfriend & his name was Georgie. cute but made of vapor. smelled like lemons"

"I shook my head. I couldn't put it to words. We were sitting in the backseat together, but part of me was wading that cold spot in the reservoir, hanging on to the edge of the boat, shivering like I was there still."

"In reality I was a pencil drawing of a photocopy of a Polaroid of my sister- you could see the resemblance in a certain light, if you were seeking it out because I told you first, if you were being nice."
