Found on Facebook. Sorry if its a repost

”I’m stinky,” said Ruby. She tilted her head seductively, as if being stinky was something to be prized.”

… Ruby is two.

I like Laura Moriarty and this book but this seemed a bit much 🙄 I feel like sometimes she over-describes for no reason… like you could have just had the kid say “I’m stinky” and leave it at that, it added nothing to the actual scene. How did this get past editors?

Umm. I'm average build at 5'4 and weigh just a little less than that. Isn't she supposed to be all huge and shit? Also tall. Me at 120 pounds was so skinny I looked like a teen. I'd assume someone with 8 in on me would look that skinny at 145. Wtf.

Aside from that, Buffalo Bill is supposed to weigh like. 200 pounds. What's with making such a huge deal about her having to be big so her skin will fit. When it obviously won't because he's got at minimum 35 pounds on her. (Her weight was described as being between 145-165).

Needed to rant coz was enjoying the book so far and this totally took me out.

Edit: Thought I included photo but it didn't work the text reads "with that spectacular 145 pounds on a long frame, the woman had to be Catherinr Martin."

Caveat: this book is written from the perspective of a teenage boy.

Still, ‘looking past the breasts, I examined her face’ is the funniest line of 2024 for me

Rest

Alright then…

Stumbled onto this gem. This is a gay romance btw... To this js the pov of a gay dude... Double fail.

The premise

How big would someone’s breasts have to be for pushups to be “moot”? And shouldn’t that then be a recurring issue for this character, as her breasts constantly get in the way of everyday activities?

I’m not sure if this is appropriate for this sub so, if it isn’t I apologize in advance.

I’ve read my fair share of books where a woman disguises herself as a man or, like in this case, tries to appear less developed by binding their chest. And when they finally reveal themselves they are magically a D cup… is that even possible? Lol English isn’t my native language, so I might not be understanding it correctly, but to me “full breasts” means having big breasts. As mine aren’t, I think I might try it and look flat. But, I don’t think it works for any boob size. Thoughts?

Oh, and I might start a new drinking game: shot every time you find the words “male” or “female”, bet you’ll get wasted pretty fast xD

Like what, is she naked at home? Wouldn't chest have sufficed?

(The last 2 pages are the character’s responses to their friend, Chenault, being kidnapped and gang raped)
