You wanted to read the book, you were excited to crack it open, you came into it with good faith and anticipation… but you ended up dnf-ing it. Which book and why?
Mine was The Maid by Nita Prose. It was for my book club and looked like a fun murder mystery. Instead I got instant manic-pixie-dream-neurodivergent-girl vibes, and I noped out before the crime scene was even found.
Barcelone Cathedral, 6th page. A “protagonist” rapes his wife on their wedding night. And later he feels so bad about it, and he regrets it so much, because he will never form a proper relationship with that beautiful woman again! From a piece on a cover I had read before starting the book, it seems that later he is very sad and disappointed when she doesn’t love their child. Assuming from what had already read, there was no way she would sleep with him willingly so the child must have had been concieved with rape.
NOPE.
