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.

    Having endured the first one some years ago, that was already about a quarter the hero getting “tortured” in poorly disguised author fetish femdom scenes.

      The female lead has an “almost got raped” scene in every book, at least for the first 7 or 8. We are talking erect penis seconds from penetration. It’s awful.

      And then there’s all the rape for women who aren’t main characters. Rape is basically the main character.
