Just really didn't enjoy this. Got about halfway through. I feel like we can do better than having to sit through casual isms of characters. Being realistic isn't enough of a reason.

I got about 10% into the audiobook of this before DNFing due to a scene of sexual violence which just sounded like it was escalating towards rape. I just can’t read about that kind of content right now.
