Rina Kent hates people of the female variety.

Seriously, misogyny is sprinkled, like a treat, throughout her entire catalog lmao.

Seriously, as someone who's listened to her whole catalog, trust me, it's incredibly hard to miss.

In this book, Mia was supposed to be all badass, throwing a ranch at Landon's well-made plans, and giving him a run for his psychotic money.

But Rina Kent gave that up in about 2 chapters in.

Rina Kent much prefers writing a heroine who simply cannot stand up, and be a challenge in any way.

She MUST be a slave to his dick from the first chapter or it's not a Rina Kent book...

In this book, Mia called Landon "more important" than her own flesh and blood twin sister.

Mind you, Landon, who is a strange boy she's known for 2 weeks, whom she has no romantic chemistry with, and barely any sexual chemistry with.

A boy who calls her his "favorite cum bucket" all romantic-like.

I am swooning, really.

Every time I listen to a new Rina Kent gem, I unlock a new variant of misogyny. It's unreal.

Maya acted like a little brat when she was an 8 year old child, and adults around her chose to do bad things to Mia, using Maya as a dumb excuse, and then made Maya put blame on herself for what happened to her twin sister.

And yet, Mia didn't hesitate to kick Maya out of her life.

But a strange dude with some mental issues who, for some reason, has a magical dick who cures Mia's selective mutism, gives her body-betraying syndrome, and lets her forget she can have self-esteem, is suddenly the end all be all she has been waiting for, all her life, apparently.

I get being mad at Maya, it's warranted since she kept the truth from Mia, but acting like Landon is her savior and all that and Landon is her "god",

just doesn't sit right with me

Also, yes, you guessed it right, Mia was a virgin.

Rina Kent is deathly allergic to writing heroines with any type of sexual agency or backbone. Or a personality not resembling a limp mop.

God help her.

(The more I read Rina Kent, the more I am convinced she couldn't have written the Deception trilogy. Seriously, a ghostwriter MUST have written that decent ass book...)

Megan Did she say “my traitorous body” at some point? It’s one of my most hated phrases in a body betraying book. 😂

Miscellaneous Allie I don't understand novels that are just basically designed to maximize internalized misogyny.
