Bookish for life

Anthropology graduate, anglophile, social justice activist, chocoholic, traveler and book lover from the German-speaking part of Switzerland, currently working in the renewable energy sector. Books have been my passion since before I could read.

 

Considering using this as a replacement for my Goodreads account, where I've been keeping track of what I read (audiobooks included). You can find a record of the dead-tree books I own on LibraryThing. As of now I haven't imported those yet.

SPOILER ALERT!

Calling Dr. Love

Calling Dr. Love - G.A. Hauser This book was a mixed bag for me. I did enjoy the 'opposities attract' story and liked both protagonists and their attraction.

The biggest negative was the misogyny that started somewhere in the middle, when one of the characters suddenly revealed himself to be into dom/sub style sex - but instead of framing the relationship in a BDSM framework, the author chose to continuously repeat a man/woman dichotomy that felt very outdated. I also had issues with some of the more unrealistic sexual descriptions, which reminded me a bit of bad porn.
