Nope, I'm out. 
 Listen, I'm marking this as read despite only getting 50% of the way through it because I probably would've skimmed it to the end if I'd been reading a physical copy. But I am not putting myself through another 8 hours of audiobook. 
 Okay, hear me out. I am soulmate trash. If you pitch a book about soulmates I am there for it. I am fully aware of how tropey it can get, but this is one of the few situations where I don't mind insta-love because hey, I know what I'm getting into. (It's definitely more compelling if you avoid that trope, but still.) 
 I knew what I was getting into here. I was fully aware that this would probably be ridiculous and maybe a little trashy. But oh my god there were just so many deal breakers for me, most of them veering into the realm of straight up sexist. 
 Shall I count the ways? 
 1) The "I'm not like other girls" and various related comments about "other girls". 
 2) The complete character assassination of any other girl who might be a "threat" to the main romance. Like, straight up two dimensional, zero depth and personality, could've been replaced with sexy lamps nonsense. 
 3) The really rigid gender roles--males as leaders and protectors to the exclusion of others being one notable example. 
 4) A lot of really heteronormative nonsense, to be honest. (Again, listen, I'm aware of what genre I'm reading, but this was so bad, like 'pulled me out of the story' bad.) 
 5) Slut-shaming. 
 6) Huge narrative preoccupations with virginity. 
 7) The off-camera rape of a secondary female character for character development. 
 8) And then the narrative tries to spin it in a positive light because she gets pregnant, keeps the baby and everything is then "worth it". Direct quote. 
 9) The continued physical and emotional abuse of the main female character by the 'bad guys' to further the plot. 
 And remember I only made it 50% through. This doesn't even cover all of it. 
 So yeah, I'm out.
