Wow, it’s very hard for me to dnf a book, but I just couldn’t stand the sexism for another chapter. I enjoyed Cain’s “double indemnity” although it also contains sexism, but it felt more like a portrait of a time period than really sexist remarks. Don’t understand me wrong: I don’t have a problem if male writers write out of a female POV, but PLEASE...stop writing sexist bullshit that is your sexual fantasy of a femme fatal and sell it as a female POV. After 30 percent of the book I didn’t feel like I got to the mystery part of the story and I lost all interest after a love interest gets introduced through a sexual assault scene (and no ladies and gentlemen, being shitfaced drunk doesn’t excuse anything. To be the tip on the iceberg, the character doesn’t really feel any remorse about his behaviour at all). All in all I’m disappointed af because I was intrigued by the blurb.
