I don't know. People make this book out to be so revolutionary just because Feyre grew two brain cells and Rhysand took a women's studies class. They're like, "Oh my God, the book shows an abusive relationship and how she has agency. Amazing!" I'm like, "Yeah? I guess? But it doesn't mean it's good, though." I knew what the author was trying to do. I just wish she wasn't beating me over the head with it. ... This book was not even trashy erotica like everyone made it out to be, because there were only two sex scenes at the end of the book. So you're telling me that I had to read 600 pages of these bland ass characters and boring ass word building before I can even see a dick? What?
