I have two. The Ritual and Drowning.

The Ritual is pure smut. 61 chapters and every one contains a graphic, demeaning sex scene. I’m convinced the author was an adult film screenwriter and decided to try their hand at writing a novel. There isn’t a single likable character in this book.

Drowning isn’t a great work of literature. I felt that the characters were very two-dimensional. I hated how naive the author made the protagonist. It made me have a lack of sympathy for her. The ending was series finale of Dexter bad.

    I loved some of her earlier books but I couldn’t get into this one and then I read that there was a claim of plagiarism/intellectual property violation around the game featured in the book. Definitely worth googling. The woman who created that game, Brenda Romero, even got the added insult of having her husband named in the acknowledgments of the book (he’s also a game creator). So disappointing that a book centering women and how they have a hard time getting recognition in gaming and it’s ripping off one of the very women it should uplift.
