Docile by K.M. Szpara

Did not finish book.

I got about 25% into this book before I stopped reading. I struggled to connect with the book's little world-building. This book is a slave-fic, and I knew that going in, but there is a LOT of sex scenes. While they are enjoyable scenes to read, barely anything based on the overarching plot happens before another sex scene occurs. I got tired of waiting for plot development.

If you are a fan of the TV series, the comics are definitely worth reading. Each issue is just as quirky, messed up and absurd as the original TV show
