What I liked:
- The character development, which was only possible because the bar was so low that there was no way but up (this is only slightly sarcastic)
- The story was very captivating. I was almost unable to put it down and probably would've finished it in one go if I wasn't so frickin tired.
- Kinda unrelated to the general plot of the book, but the parts that were in Russian... I understood some. In a way, it was a confidence boost. Go me. (For reference: I don't actually understand Russian I've just heard enough to understand some in a context)
- Also, I kind of did like the obsession of Christian, because it showed dedication, however, i doubt it stopped him from sleeping around. Men (eye roll)
- That weird ass therapist. Like, what in the heteronormativity did even happen there? (I'll get to that part later again) this woman (who had a PhD for some inexplicable reason) felt so god-damned unprofessional (it gave me a little Harley Quinn and joker vibes but without him being interested in her at all). She def thought she was the main character in her own story. Anywho.
- Heteronormativity: why does it exist? Every women who appears (or doesn't) in this book, is attracted to Christian and wants to get in his pants. Why? As an asexual, I can't relate. And what about lesbians? They exist? And people have different tastes, not everyone's gonna like him. Especially when he's such a douche to everyone.
The Tropes: kinda enemies to lovers
Triggerwarning / content warnings: infidelity, abuse (physical and emotional), manipulation / gaslighting, violence, assault, harassment, rape, stalking, drug use / drug abuse
Mood song: k. Flay »High enough« (slowed down)
