i used to have a long review here, but i think it’s better if i just left it at: it didn’t need to be written. genuinely. no theme, shallow characters, and a plot that only occasionally made sense. she dishes out sexual violence a lot , which i don’t inherently have issues with but it has little bearing on the plot and character beyond a sentence or paragraph at best, so why bother to include it.
