3.0

Definitely dated but also very easy to see why this was so groundbreaking. I remember being 14/15 and reading every book I could get my hands one that had sexual content  in it because I was so curious and all of them were kind of terrible. Fantasy with frankly nonhuman sex and a lot of rape. I would have read this book over and over again if I had found it at that age. I did not really like the characters though found them very realistic. Not into the fatphobia and Michael being so pushy.
