sorkatani 's review for:

Death of a Gossip by M.C. Beaton
1.0

I had to check when this was written because the amount of inappropriate and outdated terms and ideas was off-putting.

I wanted to like it, but there's a lot about it that's really problematic, like using sexual assault as a character quirk (like seriously, WTF?!).

The characters are barely defined, and the female characters are especially horrible in how they are nothing more than every worse caricature imaginable.

I can't believe that this book is by the same author who wrote the Agatha Raisin books.
