The Kiss Thief by L.J. Shen
1.0

„…staring at me as thoughI just mauled a baby. In a sense, that was exactly what I had done“ - the MMC about him and the FMC

This quote alone should make reconsider reading this book. While I usually do not mind an age gap, 19 and 30 is questionable. Him constantly referring to her as a teenager made matters much worse.

Besides this, the relationship was lacking in every single aspects. There wasn’t a slow shift from hate to love, that shift happens within one page at around 35%, Followed by ,what felt like hundreds of pages back, going back and forth between hate and lust/love for the pettiest and dumbest reasons you could imagine.

Also, there is a scene between the Main characters that could be considered r*pe. At the very least it is dubious consent.

Over all a hot contender for my worst read 2023
