The Endgame by Riley Hart
1.0

ooh boy there's a list of things that didn't work for me...

Should we start with the cardboard cutouts of characters with a whisper of trauma and a backstory, but then we forgot about it?

Or should we talk about how these two characters shouldn't be together at this point in their life because they're in two very different places in their sexuality. One character is out and public about it and one character is still very much in the closest. And while there wasn't any obvious pushing to come out, there was what I felt like gaslighting and pressuring. Lots of guilt trips which just felt gross.

There is a rampant trend of assumedly straight women writing m/m romances. And it's not a good look. The sex scenes were so visual with body parts and that's usually a red flag that it's an author fetish. The characters felt like they were written by a woman. I was very uncomfortable this whole time.

Because I had to read it, y'all have to hear this too... The MC said "he fell head over ass for him". who says that?
