  • Fighting Destiny by Amelia Hutchins. It was sold to me as a urban high fantasy with hints of romance and a touch of spice. But its just low budget porn written in the style of a five year old. I kid you not. As soon as I saw the way yhr paragraphs looked I wanted to put the book down, but thought “you never know, can be good anyway”. It was not. The description of the MC girl is written from the perspective of her self and its highly objectifying in a way that was so cringe and almost like a teen boy’s bad fanfic of a woman. The story is nonsense. If Marry Sue was combined with a pornstar.

    I skipped to a random section of the book in my frustration to see if it got better. Two chapters of nothing but poorly written smut. And I dont mean “sex scene, plot, sex scene, plot, etc” But I mean the same session going on for two chapters. I banished that book to the depths of my book shelves and swore to never listen to a recomendation from good reads again.
