This might stem from my overall apathy toward the “virgin FMC gets taught how to sex by experienced MMC” trope. I don’t hate it, but it doesn’t excite me. I think Kathryn Moon still did it pretty well here.
Being someone who can see, I can’t speak to whether or not Lillian’s blindness is handled well, but I certainly always appreciate disability representation. It was nice that Marius was so willing to offer Lillian freedom, and never seemed to infantilize her.
Overall this was a fun, short read.
