this is an incredible story about all the red flags an incel will ignore just so he doesn't miss out on the possibility of getting sex.
it also shows the fucking audacity a man can have that leads him to agree to be the /boyfriend/ of and then sleep with someone he sees is struggling mentally. she tells him she's struggling mentally! she needs to be completely wrapped in a duvet and carried through the hallway to get from one apartment to another. and yet he goes ahead and has sex with her. not a crumb of care or empathy for her! it's ridiculous!

this book isn't "what the fuck did i just read" in a good way, rather in the most horrible way possible. it's shocking just to be shocking.

on the positive side: it's not the worst writing, and if you squint you can see some decent insight into the incel psyche.
on the negative: the insight doesn't feel like it's purposefully written. oh, and everything else.

p.s. the woman's saliva and white discharge get described as slime while he describes her vagina like a "snail's cunt". do with all that what you will.
