• SJM (ACOTAR)
• Colleen Hoover (Verity, Woman Down, It Ends With Us)
• Jessa Hastings (Magnolia Parks, etc) - racist author, uses AI
• A Little Life - trauma porn, fetishised gay men (Hanya Yanagihara in general), literally 0 research both on gay relationships and mental health, author thinks therapy is a sham
• Quicksilver
• Haunting/Hunting Adeline - romanticises rape
• Dungeon Crawler Carl - right-wing views (poor attempt at satire, if that)
• Grady Hendrix (Witchcraft for Wayward Girls) - built his career off of profiting from women’s suffering
• The Let Them Theory
• Morrigan’s Gambit - AI marketing
• Metal Slinger - really bad writing
• Elle Kennedy (Off Campus Series) - fetishises and sexualises FF relationship but yet doesn't want to write a FF book, misogyny, lack of care for consent
• Silver is the Sky - horrible writing, dedicated to Charlie Kirk
• The Body Keeps the Score - treats an abuser's trauma as as serious as the abused’s, victim blaming, “apolitical”, overly detailed, triggering examples, won’t teach me anything new, misrepresented evidence, thinks ptsd is permanent and cbt doesn't work,his trauma center also got shut down
• Rachel Cusk - Natalie Portman exposé, pretentious, narcissistic, uses private, vulnerable details about the lives of people she met for plots while completely misrepresenting them because she can't write characters
• Wheel of Time - I do not have the patience, plus female characters are poorly written

Elisabeth

• The Anxious Generation - mostly unfunded, doesn't consider any other factors, transphobia and misogyny
• Ava Reid (Innamorata, A Study in Drawning, Lady Macbeth, Juniper & Thorn, etc.) - senseless and useless metaphors, fatphobia
