FREEDOM

telltale brit (or aussie tbh) faking american accents: they can’t say “anything”

villain confrontation at 95%? god

too bad i’m not reading this in print because i want to do a search of “masculine” and all the associated bullshit

masculine hands

i know there are more

so far my conclusion is that the women who are reading this are simply not familiar with the tsundere type character and also subscribe to the patriarchy so the overbearing “taking care of” reads as secretly caring and doting with an air of unlikeability rather than … unpleasantly paternalistic. which yes is noted in the story but also the fmc is unseasoned and inexperienced enough that dude has a point….

i am no prude when it comes to reading or listening to sex scenes but i am so turned off here idk why i think largely because i don’t give a damn about these characters

i’ve decided one of the words i hate THE MOST in typical straight romance books is CURLS. CURLS!!!! fucking head hair and public hair are CURLS!!!! FIND A NEW WORD!!!!!

uh guess it goes to show that so called classic romance books are not to my taste. which i knew already. just trying to see what people see in this…

yep ok i can tell i do not like naive and innocent fmcs even when it makes sense…. don’t like it….

don’t a lot of people love this book by romance standards? idk i’m bored.
