This book really excited me with the reviews but oh my, what a huge disappointment. This is probably the first time I’ve been made to feel pissed off with the author. The main reason for this is because of his writing about women! Basically they’re written about as meat, tit size, shapely legs whether or not they should be fucked, crude was to say it I know but this is the theme of the book. If the male characters are not wanting to grope/fondle women then they’re being insulting and degrading especially if the woman are older, over weight not shaggable.
It’s so misogynistic I couldn’t continue and unfortunately for me the story wasn’t good enough in my opinion for me to be forgiving about the degrading descriptions.
