Sleeper by MacKenzie Cadenhead
2.0
This book was just flat out uncomfortable.
Sleeper left a bad taste in my mouth. Ignoring all the stuff I would normally have an issue with (instalove, underdeveloped characters, lack of world building, etc.), there's the glaring issues of sexual assault and an abusive relationship.
The abusive relationship was, at least in a way, acknowledged. The sexual assaults, on the other hand, weren't. If these two issues were handled differently, this could have been a pretty decent read. As it was, I was left disappointed.
