![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Obviously this is bunk, and folks are correct to call it out.īut let me talk about this view in terms of being autistic, for a moment. Thus, we women should behave and dress and function in life to please men. The book has been rightfully critiqued for promoting a form of gender essentialism, in which women do not exist for ourselves, but for men. So, on a base level, I can’t really recommend it.īut, the main character is an autistic woman, being written by an autistic woman, and y’all, I saw so much of myself in her, it was embarrassing. The sex is good for the characters but hilarious for the reader. Unfortunately, the male characters are all terrible people, and most of the women are, too. She hires a male sex worker to practice sex and dating, and you can guess what happens next. The premise is a reverse Pretty Woman with a neurodivergent twist: an autistic woman in her late 20s wants to learn how to date and have sex men will like, and believes the problem to be in herself, rather in the fact that she keeps choosing terrible men. The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang is a pretty formulaic romance novel. ![]()
