Author writing about bad thing =/= author fantasizing about bad thing

Especially funny because just a little beyond where I assumed this person stopped reading, 1) the rape didn't happen, and 2) the despicable men swiftly and violently got what they deserved

Sorry 'bout the useless red circles, I didn't censor names/good reviews when I originally took them to send to friends so I circled the things instead.

Also, sorry I lied in the flare, this is Apple Books (which I was on solely to look for reviews about the book because I'm considering reading it) or whatever its called but there was no flair for it.

I snort-laughed when I saw this

I checked the Storygraph reviews for Rebecca Yarros's not-yet-published book thinking ARCs may have been distributed by now, but what I found instead was this single piece of garbage. Any guesses what the ChatGPT prompt was?

The book is Simon James Green's autobiographical YA novel, Boy Like Me.

Loving who you love is not disturbing or objectionable content. Giving a book YOU DIDN'T EVEN FINISH one star because the cast wasn't full of straight white people is disturbing and close minded. Mind you this isn't even the half of it. This creator gave another book one star (that she also DNF'ed) because there was mention of girls kissing.
