balawo's review against another edition

Dumb; misogynistic; unbelievably slow; reminds me of the cowboy farting scene in Blazing Saddles

Content Warnings

Minor: Sexual content

Cartoonish and crude descriptions of sex, and some brief mentions of sexual abuse/coercion. There is a suggestion that there will eventually be a sexual betrayal

I love this book! Read it after watching the TV series, and I love both. It's a long read, but gripping through it all.

But seriously that ending is horrible
