So they pulled that but Laurell K Hamilton, she of the "90% of my books are terrible smut fraught with consent issues, stupid fail@BDSM, homophobia, ableism, transphobia and gender essentialist bullshit", still has book in circulation...and the lolworthy Longarm stuff is as well?

Wow. Just wow.

...Wait, I may have just hit on why LKH gets a pass.

I assure you, 50 Shades is no better. I'm reading someone's review in a kind of horrified trainwreck fashion.

XD I believe it; I haven't been able to get ahold of it and I'm kinda scared to considering--well, my first exposure to LKH came from a friend and it was only the fact that it was my friend's book that kept me from hurling it across the room in annoyance and THAT IS NOT HOW THAT EVEN WORKS DSJHSjdsfgkf.

I later found out that she'd gotten halfway through, dropped it on the floor and stomped it twice, gave it the finger, and then kept reading.

If 50 Shades is along those lines I'd probably end up gesticulating madly at my screen.
