I think my problem is that I started this book hoping for something else. Anything profound this book is trying to say is overshadowed by the sheer amount of straight pornography. Wasn't expecting that. The book was so close to making commentary about how women are always in competition with each other, even in sapphic relationships.
You can kind of see it with Eve and Remi. How Eve is constantly comparing herself to Remi. And then between Eve and Olivia. How it feels they're in competition with each other for Nate's attention and how Eve and Olivia don't connect well.
I didn't really care for the ending either.
It's revealed that Nate has a wife. And he's in legal trouble at work. And want's Eve's help getting out of it.
I actually don't give a shit.
