Reading progress update: I've read 80%.

I figured out what really bugs me about this story and these female characters, they are pathetic (to this point). They wallow in their own despair let men belittle them, fill the with doubts till they believe. It is the me that is terrified of ever being this low that I would allow myself to be lessened in my own eyes. I have seen this in RL and have fought to stay away from takers. I've seen my mother taken down by a few of her boyfriends. This is hitting a very personal nerve, one I hate, which is revealing itself in my feelings on this read.
Self revelations, can suck.
I still wouldn't put it on the best seller list, who wants to read all this emotional baggage drama
