the writing style really ruined this book for me. it was not convincing, asking the author to simply believe things about character because it was stated, but never writing or showing them in a genuine or convincing way. the author was extremely fatphobic, not only in the way it used fatness as a tool to demonize a character, but it was also full of paragraphs solely devoted to describing their body in ways meant to evoke disgust. sprinkle in some racist metaphors, misogynistic lines, etc and this book is a hard miss.
the whole book kind of felt like what you’d see on r/menwritingwomen but for pretty much on topic the book touched on
