juliezantopoulos's review against another edition

This book is just super problematic. There is a quote where a guys says about a girl using blood magic "Maybe she's just a dumb cutter". There's also an exchange with a male friend by the love interest where he says she's hot and the friend says that she "was really eager. And we were looking forward to her brother going away to college but then her parents... And she lost weight from all the wrong places and looked skeletal and hacked her hair off." and the love interest says "Guess it's a good thing I don't have competition then" and that he liked her as she was...you know depressed. This just...isn't it. 

I loved Strange Grace by the same author but this is not a book I'm going to finish. I'll be unhauling this and the second book that I own.
