What's worse is that he's a lady's man who is so magnetic that he beds half of the women in the novel. You can't help but to think he's so up himself.mughoundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03396203090365419560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5638057308995601497.post-2387358157772822662011-04-16T18:43:32.444-04:002011-04-16T18:43:32.444-04:00You're not the only person in the world who ha...You're not the only person in the world who hated these books. I read it during my breaks at work, and people would come into the room and say "ooh, ahh, isn't that just a thrilling, amazing book? Just wait until you read the second one." I never got to the second one. I didn't even finish the first one, I was so bored. Thanks for validating my sentiments.~JP~https://www.blogger.com/profile/16505120250944658554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5638057308995601497.post-32174133735884746392010-12-14T13:01:19.602-05:002010-12-14T13:01:19.602-05:00I had a sinking feeling those books were trash but...I had a sinking feeling those books were trash but I couldn't figure out why (having not read them based on said weird intuition). So glad I didn't waste the money. <br /><br />The worst part is that the books and acts within them are being glamorized and a whole generation of women will probably grow up inoculated to the horrors of sexual assault under the guise of purported feminism.abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16243505974238641068noreply@blogger.com
