A review by unusablebooklore
Barbarian Alien by Ruby Dixon

adventurous funny fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

Kinda Kidnapping 
Enemies to Lovers 
 
HE’S TOUCHING HER WHILE SHE’S UNCONSCIOUS. I don’t care that Rahosh is being gentle. Why can’t Liz be awake and know what’s going on?! The author of these books is so casual with the SA. 
 
Also I'm not personally a big fan of mixed messages without prior negotiation. This book has so much…”don’t touch me right here…(where I’m showing you)…Oh I really hate it when you do (insert specific thing)… 

This book wasn't better or worse than the first. These books are what they are. Not great, not terrible, just meh...But I will likely give a couple more a try. I don't see myself reading all of them. 
 
These books liberally use c*nt. Do I mind? Not at all. But if you aren't a fan of the word...maybe give them a miss. 
 
CW: SA… 
 
Narration notes: The lady narrator sounds like she’s in a bubble. It's truly terrible.
