- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated

I've never laughed so hard while reading. Despite Matt Shaw being the author, this is NOT an extreme horror. It's not even horror.
I will be rereading this book anytime I need a good laugh.
If my husband see this review, I need a new hoover and an air fryer.
The plot twist & ending weren't what I expected but I still enjoyed the book.

This book is terrible. Not only are the characters flat, dry and unlikeable, but the author's personal views bleed through into the story. There is so many cliches about women in this novel I found myself questioning whether he ever had relationships with sane, healthy women. The author cannot write in the perspective of a woman. A lot of the choices the MC made throughout the story were ridiculous and didn't make a lot of sense. It was supposed to be satire but nothing about the book is comical. I saw that the author considers this a "romance," which is alarming. Not one scene in this book is romantic, or screams smut/romance. It does say "I'm a creep who never had experience with strong women in my life so I write sick juvenile fantasies about rape and fill my mediocre, trashy books with misogyny. " Also, that creepy introduction talking about his personal life, made me want to vomit. Let's not forget he dedicated the book to a woman and called her a Nazi and a trout. Yikes. This author is problematic and inappropriate to readers. I added him to my do no read list.
Honestly, his poor character isn't even the reason I rated this 0 stars. His writing is messy, characters are flat and there is literally no development to the MC. This book is clearly his attempt to show the world that he lacks in his personal life so much that he needs to spew sick fantasies.
