Got a WIP you're excited about? Want to rave about your fave? Or is your fandom absolutely in love with a character who detracts from every scene they bumble into, and you need somewhere to vent? You're in the right place!

Yeah, the excerpts I read were very bad. Which did make it lulzier that some guy was all "you are oppressing me with your book, stop writing this at once!" Yeah ok so this is the book where a prince kidnaps another prince, but then loses his captive when his drink is spiked with a drug that is so arousing he can't move. The book that starts with a fever dream of the author's sexual fantasies with rows of chained up men and is clearly written for other women into the same thing. You're right, random dude, people are taking this seriously as Representation. They think this is your life, random dude. They read this and they think of you, personally.

I could get into politics, but I doubt this book would do it well. I'm kinda in awe at the author's confidence sending it out under her real name, though, gotta say. She had conversations with an editor she knew in person about the contents. Takes guts. xD
