- 1:17authors website. Dear Lord, the fact that I had
- 1:20to go on our website anyway. Warning, this is a dark romance
- 1:26that contains very triggering situations such as graphic
- 1:29violence and gore, graphic murder, graphic language,
- 1:32suicide ideation, mentions of suicide, depression and anxiety,
- 1:36PTSD, near death, experiences stranded in the middle of the
- 1:40ocean. OK yeah, dub non con.
- 1:43The fuck does that mean? Non consent.
- 1:46OK, but what's dub mean www. It's non consent for sure, is
- 1:52it? Yeah, but I don't know it.
- 1:54Oh, dubious consent. Yeah, that's why I thought
- 1:56dubious. I was like Doug.
- 1:58So it's dubious. Non consent.
- 2:00Lovely. Charming.
- 2:02That's. Just rape.
- 2:05Yeah. It says is clear denial before
- 2:09sex happens. No, that's sexual assault.
- 2:11Actual Don't worry, I'm only half of the morning.
- 2:14I'm sorry. Continuing mentions of incest
- 2:19and pedophilia not depicted child abuse.
- 2:22Mentions of rape and other forms of abuse, kidnapping, and
- 2:24explicit sexual situations for 18.
- 2:26Plus there are also particular kings such as auto
- 2:30assassinophobia, arousal by the risk of being killed.
- 2:34OK, yeah, fair breath, play, degradation.
- 2:37And I could never say this, but Seder masochism, this whole
- 2:44thing was as such a tongue twister asked for Carla.
- 2:47Fuck my life. So anyway.
- 2:50I know it says dub non consent, right, but the first one's
- 2:55straight up right. Yeah, but it's cuter if you say
- 2:59I'm consent. No, I'm kidding.
- 3:02You're. Looking at me like this is rape
- 3:04girl. Dude.
- 3:07Even the fact. That you need a paragraph for
- 3:12your trigger warning shush. I would just love to read a dark
- 3:16romance with no sexual assault, but that's all I'm asking.
- 3:20That's basically. The bread and butter, though.
- 3:22But is it just like a cop out to write rape?
- 3:26Yeah, that's a conversation for a different day.
- 3:33We need to have separate comcasts about issues.
- 3:37I'm like, there's no there's no convincing me otherwise.
- 3:42No, I agree. Can we talk about before we get
- 3:45into the actual story, can we talk about the cover?
- 3:47It's giving High School Musical in the ocean.
- 3:51But it isn't at the same like I don't know what, I don't know
- 3:54what I was thinking. It wasn't giving Australia,
- 3:56that's for sure. There, Australia.
- 3:59Was not a thing. It wasn't.
- 4:01It was not a thing, and the things were wrong regardless.
- 4:06But the hilarious thing is that HD apparently consulted with
- 4:10someone from Australia and someone who's Italian to make
- 4:13sure the language was right for the Italian part did.
- 4:16Poorly and. The Australian parts were right
- 4:19for Australian bitch. No one we don't have man eating
- 4:23spiders. Little daddy long legs are going
- 4:26to do nothing but exactly nothing.
- 4:28I've never seen a magpie fucking circle.
- 4:32They don't circle and they don't.
- 4:34Squawk. They just squoop.
- 4:35They squop, they squop. They just squop right down.
- 4:39And she. I mean, she got you with the
- 4:40demon birds. They are, in fact, demon birds.
- 4:43Yeah, but nobody calls them that here either.
- 4:45No. But she wait, OK, She's not
- 4:49Australian, though, so the main character, so you can, kind of.
- 4:53Yeah. Have some leeway about she
- 4:55doesn't even know everything about Australia, but what was
- 4:58depicted in the book was stupid. It was stupid.
- 5:00OK, the most stupid. Of all, Oh my.
- 5:03God the most stupid of all. I don't know if anyone knows
- 5:06this outside of Australia, but we don't pay a bar tab at the
- 5:10end. You can.
- 5:12But they don't let. You.
- 5:13No, they usually don't if you're in a big party and you give one
- 5:17credit card ahead of time. Yeah, you've got a.
- 5:19Booking though. You've got a booking, you've got
- 5:21a credit card down. Yeah, you don't just waltz in
- 5:23off the street. You gotta pay as you go.
- 5:25You've gotta give them the money before they hand over the dryer.
- 5:28Are you kidding? Especially if you're walking in
- 5:30fucking barefoot and thongs. They're so musty, crusty in
- 5:33this. Yeah, but anyway, the cover was
- 5:36giving. I don't know what to expect,
- 5:38because I shouldn't. I should just shut the fuck up
- 5:40because we'll get haunting out the line.
- 5:42No, to be fair, I really thought it was going to be one of those
- 5:46weird barge buildings in the middle of the ocean.
- 5:49Yeah, Lucky's lab. I essentially thought they were
- 5:51going to be stuck on a lab thing in the middle of the ocean.
- 5:55I didn't know anything. I didn't look at the cover very
- 5:58well. Oh well, I saw there's a White
- 6:00House in the background, so it was giving round the twist.
- 6:02Now. Yes.
- 6:05Have you ever felt like? This you?
- 6:11Like to be fair it? Fits dude, there was some wacky
- 6:17Google stuff on that show. This is just the adult version
- 6:20of Around The Twist. It.
- 6:24Is OK. Let's dive into the story.
- 6:27Sawyer, She's a bad, bad gal. She's a bad, bad.
- 6:31Bitty. She's a naughty girl.
- 6:35I don't know what the fuck she's done because it was very
- 6:37unclear, but she's in an airport and someone recognized her and
- 6:40then like and then she's like, Oh my God, I better change my
- 6:47flight, as if you're getting a flight that day.
- 6:51As if you have money as. If you're getting a flight that
- 6:54day. Yeah.
- 6:56Although she wasn't an International Airport, but she
- 6:59had no good. She didn't even have good
- 7:02passport and stuff. This isn't 1982 I.
- 7:06Didn't know how she ended up where she did because we've got
- 7:08like 5 fucking airports and I don't think any of them are near
- 7:12there. Where did she fly again?
- 7:14She got to Port Valen. I don't know where that is.
- 7:16Sydney. Is that what she sort of?
- 7:19Is Port Valen even a thing? Is that real I?
- 7:22Feel like she made it up. It's.
- 7:24Probably Real. She probably Google Maps it.
- 7:27It's not even real, Vic. Course it's.
- 7:31Victoria. She was probably better off
- 7:34ending up in Byron Bay. So yeah, it's like a fake little
- 7:39town, small problems, small seaside Township in Australia.
- 7:44I hope the people that were consulting her about Australia
- 7:47and the Italian language got paid paid.
- 7:50Paid paid. I hope they got double paid.
- 7:52I was confused because I don't know whether I just
- 7:56misinterpreted when Enzo walked in the bar, I swear, she said.
- 8:00He had a real thick Australian accent and then he was speaking
- 8:04Italian and I was like, who? I think the bartender had the
- 8:08Australian accent. Oh well, that makes more sense,
- 8:10but I was confused. OK, so she arrives in this
- 8:14country she wasn't expecting to be.
- 8:16She's just a girly at a bus stop.
- 8:19Which rank? Yeah.
- 8:21Like, let's talk about Australian bus stops.
- 8:23You're getting. Robbed.
- 8:24You're getting robbed. And some rando.
- 8:28You've got something. Comes up to that.
- 8:31And he magically has all the ingredients for a delicious
- 8:35stick and poke tattoo. I.
- 8:37Don't. Know where this man's getting a
- 8:38octopus in from? Giving you hepatitis.
- 8:42She. Jumps in the water a bit later
- 8:43and she's like, I'm risking getting infection.
- 8:45I was like, you got a sticking poke by some random man.
- 8:50That's the actual problem at the.
- 8:52Bus stop. But you've been infected, he.
- 8:56Probably was wearing no shoes. And the best bit is he didn't
- 8:59even need to help on the boss. He approached her on purpose
- 9:02because she looked sad and alone.
- 9:05He's like this fucking teenage girlie.
- 9:07She just needs a stick and poke. Before we even approaches her,
- 9:11while she's sad and alone to give her a stick and poke of a
- 9:14lifetime, she goes through a whole chapter on smoking.
- 9:19Yeah, and I nearly quit there. If we weren't reading it for
- 9:22this, I would have quit there. I was like like why do I need?
- 9:25Because she's a bad, bad gal. She's.
- 9:30She's naughty. She's a naughty, naughty girl.
- 9:33That's. Why?
- 9:36That's why we needed all that background about her being.
- 9:38Addicted. To the nicotine, to the.
- 9:40Cunt, Sir. Wait, was she vaping?
- 9:42No, she was figaretic. That's not very.
- 9:45Australian Get on to the vapes, Girly.
- 9:49It's 2024. We're vaping.
- 9:53Illegally, I laugh with joy. Sounded like I was just sucking
- 10:00on a Babe 5. Minutes ago.
- 10:02I just want everyone to know that we do in fact have Wi-Fi
- 10:05and we do in fact have babes. Welcome to the 21st century.
- 10:11I'm sitting in a room without air conditioning.
- 10:15I'm dripping. I'm.
- 10:16Moist I'm moisture than an oyster in the sand we.
- 10:21Only just started it with a moist.
- 10:25Wait, we try to convince. People, yeah, come to Australia,
- 10:28we've totally got technology and stuff.
- 10:30We've got technology, we've got heat, we've got non circling
- 10:35Magpies. We've got the ones that just
- 10:38straight up looking nice, we've. Yeah.
- 10:39We got the crackheads at the bus station.
- 10:42Yeah, well, they know about that already, so it's fine.
- 10:44You're either meeting a cracker. Wow.
- 10:48You're either meeting a crackhead at the bus station or
- 10:51there's some guy wanking across the street in this car like
- 10:54there's no in between. Yeah.
- 10:56Yeah, you're not safe. Both or nothing.
- 10:59It's not the place to be. Just catch an Uber.
- 11:02It's not. Dude, catch a scooter, Catch a
- 11:06Oh yeah, just get on that big ass racist scooter and get out
- 11:09of there. Anyway, stick and poke what out
- 11:15in the sun. Right.
- 11:17The blazing sun bus stop. This is already when I was like
- 11:28do I just do not finish now and pretend that I know the rest of
- 11:31the book can like see her heart? I'm like gets the downer
- 11:33realizing that I. Haven't read it.
- 11:35OK. And she doesn't care.
- 11:37About those little hepatitis concerns or anything, you know
- 11:40why 'cause fucking she's suicidal.
- 11:42Anyway. Give me a reason to read this
- 11:45book, because she doesn't even have a reason to be alive.
- 11:47He was giving. Nothing, you know.
- 11:51How she was coming in like I wanna die anyway.
- 11:53And I was like, hey girls. Are you OK?
- 11:56You OK this reckless behavior? Just going to jail.
- 12:01At this point have some class and some.
- 12:04Dignity. Oh God.
- 12:08Note to self This was me early on when I was writing my notes.
- 12:11I can't wait for this book to mismanage mental health
- 12:14illnesses. It's.
- 12:16Gone. She'll be coming around the
- 12:18corner when she comes. I was like the second.
- 12:21Now we're just casually throwing in how much she wanted to die.
- 12:24I was like this is going to come up badly.
- 12:27Later, it's a lack of therapy. It's going to come and it's
- 12:30going to crash and burn. Kind of like how haunting
- 12:33outline handled stalkers. Can we just talk about Enzo
- 12:37walking into a bar being the most gronk meat cute in any book
- 12:40this fucking foul? Like what is?
- 12:45Going on. She's in this gross spa at.
- 12:48This point I already picture her with no teeth, the chemical
- 12:52burned hair, no shoes. But he walks in to some Gronk
- 12:57pub just dusty. He's got a fucking shaved head.
- 13:04And he's just walking in in. Board shorts and and she looks
- 13:07over and she's like, frothing. She's like, oh God.
- 13:10Turns out he's Italian, though. What guy with that much of an
- 13:14accent is living in this little seaside town for no other?
- 13:19Places. Do.
- 13:21We even have sharks. I mean, we do, but do we even
- 13:25have that many sharks? For him to be working as like a
- 13:28what was he a? Shark.
- 13:30Like a researcher. He had a lab under the ocean.
- 13:34He You're telling me he's rich? You're telling me he's a
- 13:36scientist who just walks around in board shorts waiting to pick
- 13:39up Ren and? Ren's on the bus?
- 13:42Absolutely not. Absolutely.
- 13:43Not. Absolutely not.
- 13:45Have some class just. The idea that he's just
- 13:51operating in. Cabins in Australia?
- 13:54Exactly where are you? He has Victoria cold all the
- 13:59time. Nobody's walking around there
- 14:02and bathing so. Why is a scientist just
- 14:04wandering around picking up wet chicks?
- 14:06Why are you not researching? Where's your life's work,
- 14:09exactly? Feral.
- 14:11Can we talk about Enzo and his love of the ocean?
- 14:15Yeah, we can't. Because it gave me the egg.
- 14:18Like them really weird kids that are obsessed with Penguins and
- 14:23they dress up like a Penguin, they pretend to be a Penguin,
- 14:28they carry an egg, something like that.
- 14:30Like at this point I thought he was going to fuck sharks.
- 14:34Didn't that happen in real life? What?
- 14:36There was that guy that was his zookeeper or something and turns
- 14:38out he was molesting all the animals in Australia.
- 14:41It wasn't shark. So he probably would have tried,
- 14:44but he was literally like crocodiles.
- 14:47Yeah. So that's not that different
- 14:48from a shark. Yeah.
- 14:50It's giving whoever that guy is. That's what I mean every two
- 14:54seconds. Like.
- 14:55What do you mean? I can't.
- 14:57I conquered your ocean. I've had enough.
- 14:59Oh. Can we talk about how he was
- 15:01described physically? Yeah, I know I mentioned the
- 15:04bald head, but. I know this.
- 15:05That's the most important part. I just want you to know that I
- 15:08was dying every two minutes. This is his description.
- 15:12OK, just just get ready to froth.
- 15:14Yeah. OK, get ready to froth.
- 15:16Hold on to your knickers. It's about to be.
- 15:17They're about to be blown off. I'm.
- 15:19Frothing out the mouth but in like like.
- 15:22A Rabies. Yes.
- 15:25OK. Here's the physical description.
- 15:27He's wearing board shorts and a black tank top.
- 15:30Not a. Cancelled already.
- 15:32His hair is buzzed close to the scalp.
- 15:35Short little spikes that would probably feel incredible against
- 15:38my hands. Hazel eyes with a dark splotch
- 15:42on the right one and deeply tanned skin.
- 15:45A light dusting of hair is scattered across his sharp
- 15:48jawline, accentuating the near criminal look he's got going on.
- 15:58You know them board. Shorts.
- 15:59You know, them board shorts had the like a naked woman.
- 16:02Yeah, the unit spikes. OK, Bart Simpson.
- 16:06OK, what? Is going on.
- 16:08There. It's not giving presidents, no
- 16:12I. Thought Italian guys are
- 16:13supposed to have nice. Hair like 4 arms flick.
- 16:16Hairline unlock. Slick back.
- 16:19Why is he shaving it closer to this gal?
- 16:22He's never had a woman in his life.
- 16:24Dark splotch in his eye. How are you seeing that in the
- 16:26dark, dusty, crusty pub? Unless it's huge.
- 16:32He's got a full cataract. He's got a David Bowie situation
- 16:35because he's being socked in the face, probably.
- 16:38But what is a near criminal? Look?
- 16:40It's giving full criminal what is near.
- 16:46Criminal. Bogan and she's giving Hick.
- 16:52They should have renamed this the bogan and the Hick.
- 16:54Sometimes she spoke to him and I was like, you're a fool Hick.
- 16:58Oh, you know what it's giving though.
- 16:59This is what I thought it was giving divorced Dad that dresses
- 17:02like a 12 year old boy stuck in the 2000 the black tank top and
- 17:06then the board. Unit.
- 17:08Not the wife. Beater, the wife, beater, the
- 17:11board shorts, the thongs. Is it like the the proper wife
- 17:15beater or is it the undershirt bond?
- 17:18The. Undershirt.
- 17:21It's a black undershirt. You'd have to be ripped to pull
- 17:24that off and then it's giving Vin Diesel.
- 17:27This ain't about family. Fucking Jesus.
- 17:32I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
- 17:34It was already going downhill. Look, at least if you weren't
- 17:37going to read this book, we've highlighted all the important
- 17:39stuff that you need to know. OK, they wonder.
- 17:42They have this really stupid conversation.
- 17:44They try to do a time skip so it looks like they're getting deep
- 17:47and meaningful. It was bullshit.
- 17:49Yeah, Nothing I hate more than crap dialogue.
- 17:53Yeah, when they're supposed to be having a big combos going.
- 17:56On about you're trying to knock me up and I was like.
- 17:59Girl. Girl, you literally look like
- 18:02you smell at. This point he wouldn't touch you
- 18:06with a 10 foot dildo. He's like, I would not fuck you.
- 18:14It was a lie, but. Still cut to 5 minutes later.
- 18:18Oh. The fact that they just walk out
- 18:20of this pub, you know she has nothing on it.
- 18:22She's walking out in little Jean shorts and like a no wallet.
- 18:25Yup. No.
- 18:27Phone. No phone.
- 18:29Some infected Crusty Sticky Milk.
- 18:34It's red and. Inflamed and they.
- 18:37Just this is like. Noon midday.
- 18:42And they're just walking down and they're like, yeah, let's
- 18:43fuck, huh? They just.
- 18:47Walk Do not have things to do, Do not have sharks to research
- 18:51this. Is like top o'clock on a Tuesday
- 18:55like light? What do you do?
- 18:59I feel like she thinks she's getting money out of him.
- 19:02She's just. That's all she was did.
- 19:03John Yeah, but she thinks she's actually like.
- 19:10She is telling me she. Looked at this buzz cut.
- 19:13These cheap ass board shorts with the unit woman on them, The
- 19:17bond $10 wife. Because she was.
- 19:20Like. I'm getting money.
- 19:23She was. I'm eating good tonight.
- 19:26She. Was like, this is the hottest
- 19:29man I've seen in my life. Oh my God.
- 19:37Can with. No shoes.
- 19:38Crusty there's skin. Flakes falling off.
- 19:42You know what though? Dead ass.
- 19:43Anybody that is Italian and your name is or similar to Enzo
- 19:48Diesel, Diego, or any variation of these should immediately
- 19:51receive compensation from any smart book writer.
- 19:56Because, excuse me, why is it always men with these names?
- 20:01What happened to just like a John?
- 20:04John What happened to John Smith?
- 20:07A nice respectable name. Respectful man.
- 20:11He's poor, poor Italian men. Misrepresented, not.
- 20:16Even with the buzz cut and all. They're just going to some
- 20:19different locations, so he's. Just taking.
- 20:22He's literally just walking her to some random hole that he
- 20:25dives into just so. That.
- 20:27They can fuck free like he's not booking a hotel motel room.
- 20:33But she doesn't even know that's happening.
- 20:35She could be getting murdered. Yeah, she doesn't care.
- 20:38She wants to die, remember? It all trickles back down to her
- 20:41not wanting to live. Immediately they're in this
- 20:44crusty, dusty waterfall. They're talking.
- 20:47And then? He licks her.
- 20:49Tears and I don't know what's going on.
- 20:53Why is this a trope? Is that before or after?
- 20:57She's like, I think you could just ruin me with the tip.
- 21:00And he's like, you think I would've even have a go, sis?
- 21:05It's around that time. Look, there was a lot of
- 21:07ridiculous. There was a lot of things going
- 21:09on. That trope only worked some
- 21:12weird fantasy books, and even then it's pushing it.
- 21:15I don't want. Anyone licking my face?
- 21:17So why? Is.
- 21:17Everybody crying they meant 5 minutes ago, like stop being
- 21:21vulnerable with complete strangers.

- 21:39filled with all the bacteria in the world and.
- 21:42With her fresh. Wound.
- 21:44Yeah, and there's conveniently a beautiful waterfall just in the
- 21:48background. Just in walking distance from
- 21:51the pub, acting like they didn't walk 45 minutes.
- 21:55So I think before they even bone, right?
- 21:57This is how she talks about this moment in time, deciding to go
- 22:01for it. I do a running jump, curl into a
- 22:03ball and slam into the water like a true imbecile.
- 22:06Most girls would probably sachet into the water like they're in a
- 22:10photo shoot, but my life is too uncertain not to do the things I
- 22:14truly want to do, like seduce the hottest man I've ever seen
- 22:18behind a waterfall. Are you kidding?
- 22:20What the fuck if I was be OK if I was behind the waterfall and
- 22:24this bitch cannonballed in? I'd get the egg.
- 22:29But she's not like other girls, Emily.
- 22:31She's different. Her life is too.
- 22:33She's a naughty, naughty gal. But it's too insecure for her to
- 22:37just walk into the water. OK, sorry.
- 22:40Does she think everybody is a supermodel?
- 22:43What is going on? Does she think everyone's like
- 22:45Margot robbieing into the water at all times?
- 22:48Oh yeah, Margot Robbie is not even Margot Robbie into the
- 22:51water. Exactly.
- 22:52She thinks we're just all Sydney sweening into the water.
- 22:55Excuse me, I don't understand. And also seduce.
- 23:01Like it's difficult. He's whipping his Dick out in
- 23:04public. Babe, you did not seduce.
- 23:08Him. She's like, huh?
- 23:10I just kept telling him that he could get me pregnant and now
- 23:12I'm seducing him. He decided to stick his Dick in
- 23:16big fucking whoop. He probably would have stuck his
- 23:19hot his. Hole he probably.
- 23:23Would have stuck his Dick into a hole in the Rockwall near the
- 23:26waterfall if it wasn't you that he had.
- 23:28A with a shark. Just glistening by that.
- 23:32Actually sounds nicer than this sex scene.
- 23:35There's so much going on, I'm sorry my thoughts cannot I?
- 23:38Know it's. Very hard.
- 23:40While she's being weirdly needy and like you're going to ruin me
- 23:44with your massive penile. She's like.
- 23:49You need to kiss me first because I'm sick of men not
- 23:53being able to kiss me. Of course Enzo does not, in
- 23:57fact, kiss women. It's too hard.
- 23:59He hates women. It's too hard.
- 24:02He's got. Mummy issues.
- 24:04The dark. Lady, he's just as his.
- 24:07Mummy. She left him on the steps of a
- 24:10church. Good riddance.
- 24:12Good. Riddance, I hope.
- 24:14She's living her best life. What a queen.
- 24:16What? A.
- 24:17Childless Queen. Look at how he turned out.
- 24:24I don't think there was any fixing that.
- 24:27She made a joke about him being able to ruin her life with just
- 24:30the tip, you know, obviously. And lo and behold, somehow he
- 24:33drags up literally the Loch Ness Monster, his Dick out of the
- 24:36water, and he's just ready to go.
- 24:38Like Dick just out. The Dick is halfway across the
- 24:43waterfall. Exactly, I don't.
- 24:47Know. How?
- 24:49I just don't know how she didn't notice the three legs.
- 24:52Walking down in the Bush, what I like is that this time is the
- 24:57only time I could be like, Yep, that Dick's too big.
- 24:59You know, that's always that trope of the Dick's way too big.
- 25:04It's always too big. Sit.
- 25:05Out. It is.
- 25:06A third leg. It's touching the ground.
- 25:08It's got scrape marks from the rocks.
- 25:10It's actually. It's the same way as his entire
- 25:14body, you tell. Me.
- 25:15He's a nearly criminal man. The biggest?
- 25:19Thing. Oh my God.
- 25:21Get this though. They're about his Duke, his
- 25:23poise to go in. I can't remember what position
- 25:25or anything. It's all wiped from my brain.
- 25:27I know she was on her back. Onto the rocks, of course.
- 25:30Of course, get this. This near criminal always wears
- 25:35condoms. But.
- 25:37Maybe just this? Box.
- 25:39I won't. Shut.
- 25:40Up. I would the crustiest bitch you
- 25:43could find before Valon. Who is literally infected with
- 25:48hepatitis. It's coursing through her
- 25:50fucking face from her fresh, stinking poke.
- 25:53He's like, you know who's the person to roll the dice on this
- 25:57crusty bitch? Yup.
- 25:59Are you believing that for a second?
- 26:03Musty. No, But are you believing that
- 26:05he uses a condom without? Free oven.
- 26:07I don't believe women sleep with him.
- 26:11So in a way, he is clean. Either that or he's Dick so big
- 26:17because it's practically falling off from the.
- 26:20Infestation. I'm just.
- 26:23Just. Pussy.
- 26:24This is why men just have to close their.
- 26:26Legs and be more respectable. Tuck it in.
- 26:31Dare him disgusting into this pub with his massive penis.
- 26:35No woman's going to want you. If you're just out here with a
- 26:38mess, Tuck it in. You.
- 26:40Harlot, Put your Dick away, Tuck it into your.
- 26:46Asses. Responsible, Respectful.
- 26:47Establishment. The waterfall.
- 26:55Demands respect. You must pay the spirits in your
- 27:02car. And.
- 27:03Then. Just shark spirit animals.
- 27:05Just like. The earth is pregnant From how?
- 27:12This watering hole is just Mother Nature's Earth vagina.
- 27:15And he's. Pregnant with it?
- 27:17It's. So.
- 27:18Salty in that waterfall because these balls are so big.
- 27:21We've never. Fully lost it.
- 27:23As bad as like right now it's only chapter 3 so stuck it
- 27:29hurts. Oh my God.
- 27:31And you know what? I just answered the question.
- 27:33It does fucking hurt. This book hurts.
- 27:36It does. Not as Dick I.
- 27:38Was asked at least five times during this book, and every time
- 27:41I said yes, I was. I willingly downloaded, but I
- 27:47didn't consent. That's when the non con comes
- 27:51in, so they obviously go back to his place in bone indefinitely.
- 27:57He says some weird Predator shit about how we're chapter four.
- 28:03We moved on from chapter. 3. He goes.
- 28:07No, Bella, I'm going to make you take it from me.
- 28:09If you want a predator to submit you to you, then you need to
- 28:14submit to you. Then you need to be stronger.
- 28:17Mitt, you're not a predator. She caught you?
- 28:21Who's the predator? Who's old?
- 28:24Is this an age? Gap.
- 28:25No, no, no, Big Eagles. She steals some important shit
- 28:33so that she can make a credit card in his name, which.
- 28:35She does immediately. Somehow Isn't the credit card
- 28:40situation never lined up with Australians.
- 28:43She stole his Italian Social Security number.
- 28:47We don't have security, social numbers and.
- 28:50How are you going to just take a screenshot?
- 28:51That shit needs to be signed off.
- 28:54You need the. You need the birth certificate.
- 28:57You need a justice of the peace to be there and sign in front of
- 29:00you, girl. Please.
- 29:02Girl Australia was not the place to.
- 29:04Pick unless she did some fraudulent stuff, because that's
- 29:07kind of her crimes. Yeah, I don't know.
- 29:09I just feel like it would be a lot harder.
- 29:12So she steals some shit. She doesn't even leave the town.
- 29:16Just go one town over. At least there's plenty of them.
- 29:21I guess because it's supposed to be a small beach town.
- 29:24But when I was reading this, I didn't get that from the start
- 29:26and I was like, how did he just run into her at the beach?
- 29:30There's five people in this. Fucking for.
- 29:32Real. There's no way.
- 29:34He's like, I'm just going to check the beach first, you know?
- 29:37It runs into her it. Just runs into her.
- 29:39And this is a couple days later, isn't it?
- 29:41And she ghosted him and he was 8 like.
- 29:44Two weeks. It was in a couple of weeks.
- 29:46She had already racked up like $1000.
- 29:48Yeah. And he figured it out, Yeah,
- 29:50because he was like, oh shit. She she had taken.
- 29:53She's just disappeared. He was trying to get that
- 29:55Friends With Benefits started and for whatever reason she just
- 29:58plays nice with him, even though they kind of agreed that it was
- 30:03going to be a one night stand. Just stick by your word, bitch.
- 30:06Also, he could be luring you into a trap because he could
- 30:09know about it and she's still that numb and goes with him.
- 30:13She's just so stupid it hurts. I'm just victim blaming at this
- 30:17point. Is she a victim?
- 30:20For what happens next, Kind of. Yeah.
- 30:23Oh yeah. He takes her out in the middle
- 30:25of nowhere on his boat and then. He just.
- 30:29Bangs her while drowning her in shark infested waters after he's
- 30:34riled up all the sharks. Yeah, so this is where I'm like,
- 30:38it is full of salt because there's a point where she's
- 30:41like, trying to get him to stop. And he doesn't.
- 30:45He just keeps going and he's OK with it.
- 30:47He's OK with it. We, as the audience, are
- 30:50supposed to be OK with it. She's nearly.
- 30:53Drowning. Bites.
- 30:54Her lips so hard and at that point I feel like she definitely
- 30:58took that consent back. And he's just like shoving her
- 31:02face in the water. So all the blood's just.
- 31:04Yeah. Gone.
- 31:05There's no way he is that quick. No.
- 31:08What do you even do from there? Because she's just like, cool.
- 31:11What the fuck? They're.
- 31:13Finishing up. I don't know how long they were
- 31:15having sex, but conveniently, they're just looking over.
- 31:17Oh, there's a crazy storm that's just coming out of nowhere.
- 31:21Yeah, she's having like a like a quick little mental breakdown.
- 31:24This is probably where he looks at tears, because he looks at
- 31:27tears and goes. They're mine now.
- 31:29Well. He did it before as well though,
- 31:31I think. Stop it when the storm comes
- 31:34over and he's like, aye, the person that's always in the
- 31:37ocean always checks every day the weather.
- 31:39Conveniently didn't check the weather this day.
- 31:42And then she was having a little bit of a laugh because she goes,
- 31:46you brought me out here to make me think I'm going to die, and
- 31:49now they're going to both die. Yep.
- 31:52How big is this storm? How small is this?
- 31:54How? How far in the ocean are they?
- 31:57That's what, yeah, because that would have taken a long time to
- 32:00get out there. I'd be like, he's definitely
- 32:02going to kill me. Yeah, 100%.
- 32:04As soon as sharks were around the boat I would have been like,
- 32:08I am going to die. And how did he even convince her
- 32:10to hop on the boat alone to go out in the middle of nowhere?
- 32:13Yeah, it it wasn't really explained very well.
- 32:16She's not the smartest cookie in the cookie, yeah.
- 32:18The storm capsizes them, obviously, because they're in a
- 32:21tiny bucket boat. I don't understand how he does
- 32:25all that shit and then he's like, Oh no, you better hold
- 32:28your breath, baby. I know.
- 32:30He starts calling her pet names. Yeah, I'm like, you literally
- 32:33were just trying to kill her. And then they get thrown onto
- 32:36this island somehow, but she's freaking out that he's dead too.
- 32:38She's like, Oh my. God.
- 32:40She actually saved him. She swam him to shore.
- 32:44I wouldn't. I wouldn't either.
- 32:46The fuck Life would have been better when?
- 32:48He just tried to drown. You.
- 32:50I know I'd be like, that's calm, a bitch.
- 32:52Hopefully you get in by now. I'd see he's like floating body
- 32:56out there and I'd be like, oh, going out there.
- 32:59It's too. Far I can barely swim as it is.
- 33:03They figure they're on this crazy island, right?
- 33:05Yes, they come to terms with that.
- 33:07Where the fuck are? They that it's that secluded.
- 33:10And apparently they're so far away from Australia.
- 33:12How long were you in the water? That's what I don't.
- 33:15Understand. How far did you go without
- 33:17getting attacked or drowned? Yup.
- 33:20There is no reception. Not the Titanic.
- 33:23And they were in a small boat. They're not going that far into
- 33:25the deep ocean. It would take multiple hours.
- 33:29Yeah. Come on, what is going on?
- 33:32What is? Happening.
- 33:33But anyway, unrealisticness aside, they run into a complete
- 33:37creeper that lives there. Sylvester.
- 33:41And then he locks him in a bedroom.
- 33:44He allows him to stay, locks him in a bedroom with a piss.
- 33:46Bucket, if I'm being honest, if I was ever in a situation, this
- 33:53one in particular, and some random man on a random island,
- 33:59there was no one else around and he locked me in a room with a
- 34:02piss. Bucket, I'd kill him.
- 34:05Yeah. I'd be like.
- 34:07I'd be like absolutely not. He's not, no.
- 34:11What would we do if we both got locked in with the piss bucket
- 34:14in this dank, moldy ass room? You and I both know I have the
- 34:19bladder of a small. Child, I'd be like you just stay
- 34:22on the piss bucket. I'll let you know when I need
- 34:24it. I'd just be out in the morning.
- 34:27I'd. Be probably so dehydrated that
- 34:29it wouldn't. Even matter.
- 34:30Is he giving us water? Like, what's happening?
- 34:32Is this some weird piss fetish? Like, what is going on?
- 34:35And so I assume they've only got 1 bed of course, so there's that
- 34:39lovely trope of 1 bed. One bed How?
- 34:41Is this enemies to lovers when they fucked?
- 34:44In the first instance, it's not giving enemies to lovers.
- 34:47No, and it's clearly he's in love with her from, like, day
- 34:50one. Why?
- 34:53I just. Want a good?
- 34:54Enemies to lovers. That makes me feel all the
- 34:58enemies to love things. Who's feeling what reading this
- 35:02because I was feeling confused. I was feeling conflicted.
- 35:06Confused and bored. My vagina was slowly sewing
- 35:10itself. It was knitting itself.
- 35:13It was. Slowly drying out.
- 35:17He was. Calling the doctors you.
- 35:18Know we were just like a little piece of beef.
- 35:21Jerky. Just slowly, yeah.
- 35:24I just don't know who's reading this for fun because I just felt
- 35:28like I know people like Dale, Croman says.
- 35:29I know that Don't come for me. I know that.
- 35:32You know what I mean? Yeah, don't come for me.
- 35:34I know people like this stuff, but what are you getting out of
- 35:37it because? I don't like some dark romances.
- 35:40Sometimes they keep them interesting.
- 35:42The only thing that kept me reading this book was trying to
- 35:45work out who was locked upstairs.
- 35:49Well, I just thought it was wanting out of line in just a
- 35:51ghost. Because they kept.
- 35:53Was it even a ghost? No, it was the girl.
- 35:55Yeah, but in the book it was giving pen pal like you said how
- 36:00just random shit's going on and you're just like.
- 36:02I'm confused. I didn't care though.
- 36:04I was like, at least that's something that we'll learn
- 36:09later. It gave me a weird comfort.
- 36:12But that's the only thing that kept me reading because I didn't
- 36:15care about anything else. True.
- 36:18She smells like the ocean. And then he gets mad because
- 36:21that's his favorite scent. So she smells like pure salt.
- 36:25Yeah, and sweat. And he's but he's mad at her
- 36:28about it. How does old mate have a wooden
- 36:30peg leg but practically sprints down the hallway when they were
- 36:34snooping that time and they were hiding in the closet?
- 36:37How does he do anything? I don't want to.
- 36:41I have so many questions about the end of the book, so I'll
- 36:43just leave it to the end of the book.
- 36:45Yeah, There's so many. Sylvester.
- 36:48Is he short? Is he tall?
- 36:50His peg legs too short, I know that.
- 36:52He was giving me average height. I don't even know.
- 36:55So they're snooping because they're in the closet.
- 36:56They're trying to find out information about and then after
- 36:59that Sprint down the. Hallway.
- 37:01He just whips his leg off and has a nap.
- 37:03I'm sorry, who sprints to have a nap?
- 37:06Why would you get your adrenaline all pumping right
- 37:08before you're about to go? Maybe he's just.
- 37:10Happy breathing up the. Stairs.
- 37:12He wasn't really springing the. Real.
- 37:15Question is. We thought it was a good idea to
- 37:17finger her in the closet. Enzo, but she wasn't even being
- 37:22quiet about it. He was full finger blasting at
- 37:25full speed. I.
- 37:26Don't know who finds this man attractive besides the weird
- 37:30description he has, but he says shit like your pussy singing a
- 37:35lullaby. Are you kidding?
- 37:36I would throw myself out of the lighthouse if someone said that
- 37:40to me. Yeah, what does that even mean?
- 37:42I'll. All mates asleep right in front
- 37:45of you guys. He's not that decrepit.
- 37:48How old is this man? He's been there since before 85.
- 37:53Anyway, he says in that exact moment.
- 37:55And this is what also would be making me question all my life
- 37:58decisions, he says. Would you scream for me this
- 38:01time? But, he goes, you always do when
- 38:03you create your own little ocean all over me.
- 38:05Stop it. The ocean.
- 38:07Get over it, get. Over the sea.
- 38:09He's obsessed. He's.
- 38:11Obsessed. And it's gross.
- 38:13His mistress is the sea. It is because immediately after
- 38:16he goes, I've already conquered your ocean.
- 38:19OK. You're panicking so much and
- 38:25it's kind of like. Every time I read it, I was
- 38:27like. How?
- 38:28Do you? Face your ocean.
- 38:38It's like. Oh.
- 38:41Jesus, do you think he puts his ear up to her vagina and waits
- 38:44for those ocean wave noises? He's like.
- 38:51I'm rubbing that sweet little shell.
- 38:54Not the clam. Clam.
- 38:58So he's he's talking clam makes these sweet nothings just like.
- 39:06I can't. Remember what he was.
- 39:07Saying whilst they were blasting.
- 39:09She didn't. Consent to that, either.
- 39:11He just crept his little fingers into her pants.
- 39:15But he did it while she was having a panic attack.
- 39:18Yeah, like that's going to help. You're panicking about being
- 39:21stuck in a closet and this creepy old man finding you.
- 39:24And you know what you do? You put your fingers in the
- 39:26cookie jar. You.
- 39:28Straight up. Put them Yup.
- 39:30OK, help me help me help you because I.
- 39:33I cannot be helped. I wrote something.
- 39:35Down and I need assistance. I need assistance.
- 39:40I need a dog. I need the.
- 39:43I need the ward police. OK, this is what I wrote down.
- 39:47I don't know what this means. Not him finding The Cave.
- 39:51I'm assuming that means Enzo and making her pull out her pussy
- 39:55slime. And I feel like this is way
- 40:01later because my consistency with notes just went really
- 40:04downhill. But he literally made.
- 40:07Her. Scoop up her pussy slime at one
- 40:09point. I.
- 40:12Know. OK, I was.
- 40:13Too stressed from everything else I know, they fucked in The
- 40:16Cave. Yeah.
- 40:17But after he was like, how dare you hide this cave from me?
- 40:20Let her have her cave. Fucking cave.
- 40:25It's all she has. Well, maybe.
- 40:28It's this is probably around the time where he was telling her to
- 40:30close her mouth because she kept looking at the glow worms with
- 40:33her mouth over. Let her look.
- 40:35She. Has.
- 40:37And I don't even like. A bit tasty little slimy tree.
- 40:40I don't even like. Sawyer.
- 40:42But it's all she has, apart from Okay.
- 40:44Apart from this weird cave bullshit and that.
- 40:46They're. Living with Sylvester, they've
- 40:49just sort of agreed with his, I suppose, rules.
- 40:52As in, we sleep in this room. Down the stairs.
- 40:57I'll take his pig leg. And hit him with it.
- 41:02It's not that hard, you're telling me, two grown fit
- 41:05adults. Cannot.
- 41:06Whack this man. That's.
- 41:09Why I don't understand about the.
- 41:10End of the book. Oh, don't care me.
- 41:12Stop. I would have.
- 41:14Whacked him day two. I'd have been like, come on now.
- 41:17Like, look at you. Look at me.
- 41:18We've got this. It's fine.
- 41:20He could have just whipped his Dick out and done a little and
- 41:23it's over for him. Sylvester's over ROP.
- 41:34She could just scoop out a bit of pussy.
- 41:35Simon. He's done.
- 41:39Sylvester's so festy he would probably chase it.
- 41:42He would chase it. He would.
- 41:44Lick that glob off the wall. Disgusting.
- 41:50OK, so Sylvester has this weird fetish about her, too, because
- 41:54he's always a bit. Surprised, though it's a lonely
- 41:59man on an island. He's constantly touching her.
- 42:03But they emphasized a lot about her blonde hair.
- 42:06Yeah. And remember, they talked about
- 42:08his family at one point, and they were blonde.
- 42:10And I was like, oh. That's a.
- 42:11Problem. That's a connection.
- 42:15Right, yeah. Anyway they agree with.
- 42:18Why? I don't know why they agree
- 42:20they're OK with Sylvester putting these rations on them
- 42:23because cargo ships only come once a month, and they come with
- 42:26his groceries from clicking clay coals.
- 42:30Like. Buying the groceries here?
- 42:34I just want. To okay while he's doing this
- 42:38too, there's a bit where she catches 3 fish with a spear.
- 42:42Apparently, catching fish is too against Enzos morals with the
- 42:47sea. Shut up.
- 42:49I know. He's like, I'm just no good at
- 42:51catching fish because I've never eaten fish before because I just
- 42:55love the ecosystem. So she catches 3 fish and then
- 43:00Sylvester, it's like you can have some steak tonight.
- 43:04Not the fucking. When she care too much about the
- 43:07sea life. Wouldn't she have fish one day,
- 43:10ration for dinner and then have steak the next day?
- 43:14Why would? You have.
- 43:15It's like, cool, let's just waste rations When we had fish
- 43:19perfectly ready to eat. Yeah, and then they never catch
- 43:22fish again. She's so smart.
- 43:24She makes her own spear, but that's it.
- 43:26I ain't nobody fishing anymore. We're.
- 43:28Done. Because, Enzo said, stop.
- 43:31What kind of ecosystem can't afford people hand fishing
- 43:35through Fisher Day? Like, I'm sorry, that's the
- 43:37ecosystem's fault? Are you kidding?
- 43:41I'm. I mean.
- 43:41I can get fat. I'm like care.
- 43:43About it when you get back, you've done enough, Sir.
- 43:46Literally. Focus on the ozone layer in
- 43:49Australia and then fix your problem.
- 43:51But don't you think the fact that they're out here in the
- 43:53wilderness, their carbon footprint has dramatically
- 43:56decreased? You're not driving a car, yeah.
- 43:58You're. Good, you're good.
- 44:00So eat all the fish you want, bro.
- 44:02Senile Susie is not ruining the planet right now.
- 44:05Exactly. After all of this weird all.
- 44:09Of what? What's going on is like
- 44:11castaway. We're nowhere.
- 44:13Near the end. This is castaway and you can't
- 44:16tell me otherwise. Sylvester gets his greedy little
- 44:19hands on that, so he's already touching it and bitches
- 44:23conflicted because Ento's like, don't touch her.
- 44:26I would be OK bash the man already at this point.
- 44:29I know. But Sylvester comes up to say
- 44:31sorry to her. And it's like.
- 44:33You don't expect me to help it while you're like in a bikini.
- 44:37Why she has a? Choice.
- 44:39It's all she has. Where's the shopping center?
- 44:41She's going to go buy the clothes to turn you away.
- 44:44Yeah, like, can I pop down to the Myers real quick and I'll
- 44:47get a different bikini? But you know the worst part?
- 44:51By the end of the book, if I fucking had to hear about these
- 44:53crusty bikini bottoms one more time, I was about.
- 44:56To fucking lose it. I know.
- 44:58The. Crusty bikini bottoms, the
- 45:00amount of times he took them off slid them to the side.
- 45:03They are crusted up so. They are falling apart, they are
- 45:07disintegrated. Got them from Big W, but they're
- 45:10not quality. No, they're no longer fluorid
- 45:13green. They're.
- 45:15Olive. No, I just couldn't hear about
- 45:19it. And you know, bikinis are not
- 45:21something you should be wearing 24/7.
- 45:23So she's got crotch swamp, There's no.
- 45:27Breathability got stuck on this island.
- 45:29She's like in a beach town. You just wear them.
- 45:32No, you. Don't.
- 45:33You do not. The coochie needs to breathe.
- 45:35No one works. You're not at the.
- 45:36Ocean Farm Oh my God, the amount of times.
- 45:41In this book. That.
- 45:42He mentioned her vagina smelling.
- 45:46A vulva. I've got a direct quote
- 45:49somewhere. So he said this and I quote, but
- 45:52I can still smell her sweet cunt and how it weeps for me.
- 45:56Stop with the weeping death. Immediately.
- 45:59Death. Every single time.
- 46:02Immediately. Every single minute of the time
- 46:05she's like, if I just leaned a little forward, I'd be able to
- 46:08smell it. I can smell her around.
- 46:11So is she obvious, lady? Is it just that musty?
- 46:16I It's those bikini bones. That's all it could be.
- 46:19It's entrapping the moisture. There's no aeration.
- 46:22There is mold at this. Point There's mold, there's
- 46:25black mold there's. Black plague.
- 46:27There's hepatitis. There's.
- 46:28A lot going on. It's just a casual yeasty on a
- 46:31Thursday morning. She's got the BV.
- 46:34She's got the BV. From his dirty D.
- 46:39I just OK. There was a point where Suya
- 46:40said coitus. And I just just.
- 46:43I'm done. Honestly, the amount of shit she
- 46:46said that I wish was not, said cyborgs.
- 46:50Water police, Yeah, the one point Sylvester's like, did she
- 46:54hit her head? And Enzo's like, Nah, that's
- 46:56just her. She's just the weird.
- 46:59Bitch. Honestly, when I saw the word
- 47:02coitus, I just it takes me to Big Bang Theory and Sheldon
- 47:06Cooper and I just. Congress.
- 47:08If I was reading this for fucking fun, I'm.
- 47:13Out No. That's what I mean.
- 47:14If I was reading it for fun, I would have been out on the
- 47:16chapter on the smoking. I wouldn't.
- 47:18Even be out the second the stick and poke thing, 'cause that was
- 47:20the first time I texted you and I was like, like, I don't.
- 47:23Know. I don't know.
- 47:25We've only vetoed one book ever, and I don't like to veto books.
- 47:29I like to just power through and struggle through the pain.
- 47:33I'll tell you, I'll remember this one.
- 47:35So can I just note that I don't know what's worse?
- 47:39Enzo's starting to treat her better because she told him that
- 47:42her brother sexually abused her as a child, or him continuing to
- 47:47treat her like shit after learning that.
- 47:50I don't know what's worse, it's just protect.
- 47:53It didn't change. Anything, though.
- 47:55Here's the thing. He had sex with her for some
- 48:00unknown reason. I don't know why.
- 48:01We haven't talked about it yet. She squirts every time she's the
- 48:05ocean. Yeah, OK.
- 48:07And then after he's like, I can't remember he's why he's
- 48:10mad. But they he's mad they're
- 48:11getting drunk and she's like, I was sexually assaulted.
- 48:14And then after that he does like this weird long speech.
- 48:19Of course he does a speech about her sexually.
- 48:23What was his speech about? I can't remember.
- 48:26Are you ready? I'm ready.
- 48:27Got it? Because there's nothing I hate
- 48:30more than weird, almost Confessions of love.
- 48:34These kind of things, he goes. What happened to you does not
- 48:39define you. It only forged a new path that
- 48:42will take you to a different version of yourself.
- 48:45But no one can force you to walk that road.
- 48:47Only you can determine who will be once you get there.
- 48:50It's your choice. You you will become Sawyer.
- 48:54What? She tries to steal money from
- 48:57men. And then you come in and
- 49:00traumatize us some more and act like it's fine.
- 49:04You know what victims of sexual abuse love?
- 49:07It's you mansplaining how they should heal, as if you know a
- 49:13single thing. He's he's not OK with the
- 49:17brother sexual assault, but he is OK with drowning her in the
- 49:22ocean with shark while. That's happening.
- 49:24He did it, Yeah. How is?
- 49:28That the equivalent to stealing his money?
- 49:30He's like, I'm going to ruin her life.
- 49:33Yeah. It's not the same.
- 49:34It's not Wavelength. It's not the same.
- 49:37Steal her money. Steal her car.
- 49:39Or report her to the police, just report her and the end she
- 49:45will be extradited back to her country and deal with the murder
- 49:49of her brother blah blah blah blah.
- 49:51Like you don't have to worry about it.
- 49:52Like you don't have to rape her as revenge.
- 49:56It's weird. Like you said, apples and
- 49:58oranges. Yeah, yeah.
- 50:00Immediately after, he's like going on this weird rampage
- 50:03about killing her brother. Because, you know, that helps.
- 50:08You know, maybe just take yourself out, Enzo, because you
- 50:11did exactly the same shit. She's like, it doesn't matter if
- 50:15he's dead or alive, he'll always haunt me.
- 50:16And he's like then I will haunt you worse.
- 50:19You already. Are.
- 50:22That's not what she. Asked for.
- 50:23He's like, I'll haunt you worth OK.
- 50:27Send her to. Therapy you rich man.
- 50:29But it's just like. Help her.
- 50:31Get a new identity. Yeah, And it's like, so I'll
- 50:34make your life worse so you don't have to think about your
- 50:38molesty brother anymore. Deal.
- 50:41Does that sound good to you? Because it sounded like a sweet
- 50:43deal for me. Because I just keep.
- 50:45I just get to treat you like absolute trash and keep sexually
- 50:48assaulting you. What does?
- 50:51She get out of it. She gets nothing and This is why
- 50:55I'm convinced that this man has never had sex with anyone.
- 50:58It's not a believable character in any way, shape or form.
- 51:01It doesn't make any sense. What's his motivation?
- 51:05It seems to be revenge on her, but you could easily.
- 51:08Do that. It's not revenge on her, it's
- 51:11revenge on his mum. Yeah, it's revenge fault because
- 51:13he has this thing about her lying, but it's revenge because
- 51:17he's mum lied. OK, Go find your mum and throw
- 51:20her into the sea. Add to the ecosystem that you're
- 51:24so protective of. I.
- 51:26Literally had enough at this point, but maybe.
- 51:29His dad was exactly like him and that's why Mum was like, I don't
- 51:33fucking want this kid. True, true.
- 51:35True. True.
- 51:36Like, she could have had very good reasons to give up a baby.
- 51:39And why are you taking it out on a totally different young girl?
- 51:42Yeah. Like, stop it.
- 51:44Yeah, but then that stuff never has to matter for the back story
- 51:49of how main male characters. Do they?
- 51:51No, they can just males can just be trash.
- 51:54This book, at this stage, was super flatlining.
- 51:57Yeah, it was just a lot of sex in random places.
- 52:01Nothing was. Going on with this stupid
- 52:02Sylvester character, he was obviously going to be a bad guy
- 52:05to make Thing I Look. Good.
- 52:06We All we had was a weird haunted shit.
- 52:09The Girl in the sea. He nailed their windows shut,
- 52:14and window was already nailed shut.
- 52:16So don't you think there's something fucking cuckoo bananas
- 52:19with this man? Exactly.
- 52:20And Enzo was just slowly taking them out without telling anyone.
- 52:24Just leave. I'm like you're free on the
- 52:28island 95% of the time. But they could have captured
- 52:33him. And lock him in the room.
- 52:35That's what I mean. They could have captured him.
- 52:36They didn't have to kill him. Yeah, they didn't have to turn
- 52:39into murderers. They could have assessed the
- 52:41situation. Their communication problems
- 52:43were so bad that he didn't trust her because he hates women.
- 52:47She didn't know what she was doing.
- 52:49She was just trying to be a pick me.
- 52:50Like, as long as he's having sex with me.
- 52:53I'm fine and then old mate. Sylvester kept trying to
- 52:57convince, so we had to stay on the island.
- 53:00He's like, at least you won't need an identity here.
- 53:03You can just stay here forever. Like.
- 53:04She. Never said a single word about
- 53:06that, so I don't know how. He he assumed she was in trouble
- 53:09because she didn't really want to go.
- 53:11Yeah. And then Enzo was like, no, you
- 53:13have to stick with me. Why?
- 53:16What have you exactly provided? There's a point where they have
- 53:20sex in the ocean. This is when she was trying to
- 53:23kill herself. She's in the ocean like titties
- 53:26out. Sylvester is up in the
- 53:28lighthouse living his best life. She's like, I'm just going to be
- 53:32taken out by the cold. He's like, just live for me.
- 53:36That was a weird smile sex scene where he dug his fingers into
- 53:40her mouth. And do you remember is she bit
- 53:44his fingers and like smiled and he's like, oh you want to smile?
- 53:48And then he was fucking her from behind while holding like her
- 53:51mouth. Apart.
- 53:53Just squashed in. There's nothing worse than a
- 53:56male character in a book saying just live the me.
- 53:59Why? What have you done but
- 54:01traumatize her some more? Make her shitty life even worse.
- 54:05She nearly died on that. She took herself out in The Cave
- 54:09by accident, and then you wouldn't leave her alone.
- 54:12When I got to about 60% through the book, I was starting to miss
- 54:16Silver Swan because at least at least they had their tragic
- 54:20little gang vibes. And there was.
- 54:23Like. Stuck and it was just the
- 54:24immature little boys running around.
- 54:26Yeah, like, you know how you get a dark romance and you it aligns
- 54:30with some things and you're like, at least silver spawn had
- 54:33this. Well, that out of all the books,
- 54:35though, Silver Swan is by far the worst thing.
- 54:37Oh. I know, but at least there was
- 54:39stuff going on. Yeah.
- 54:40And I understand it. Just stuck on an island and that
- 54:43was it. I know, and I understand that HD
- 54:46Carlton, for whatever reason, is raking it in.
- 54:49And get your bag, sis. She's probably rolling around in
- 54:51money as we speak, and I'm fully jealous.
- 54:54That's good for you, girl, but can we have some?
- 54:58Plot Where's the quality? Are you dead ass going to give
- 55:02us this stuff and tell us that we should be propping?
- 55:07I have no words for you. What are these people frosting
- 55:10over? I'm confused.
- 55:12That's. The thing I don't think I would
- 55:14have read this, the only thing that got me halfway through is,
- 55:17is like, I want to know what's going upstairs.
- 55:20That's all I wanted to know. I didn't care.
- 55:22About the rest, Okay. Sylvester was still hanging on
- 55:25to this idea that she should stay.
- 55:28She's told you that many times. She doesn't want to stay.
- 55:31Just get over it, my bro. It was the.
- 55:34Longest plot point of this whole book, him just being like no,
- 55:37you have to stay. You have to stay.
- 55:38You have to stay. I need Maya needs company go
- 55:43live on this island all. Her problem?
- 55:45Because she's a slim, white blonde girl that she has to
- 55:48fulfill all these man's needs. Yeah.
- 55:51Sylvester, who she only met, and Enzo, who technically is.
- 55:54Sylvester, he's got to be. He's got.
- 55:55To be like 60s. 70s. It's got to be what kind of life
- 55:59is that? Just existing for men.
- 56:01And you know, Sylvester's just going to want to bang her at
- 56:03some point because he's psychotic.
- 56:05Well, he's technically trying to touch her.
- 56:08And yeah, well, he was trying to like rub her leg and stuff and
- 56:13he was like smiling at her. And I'm like his teeth are
- 56:15rotten. Was he trying to groom her to be
- 56:17his replacement daughter? I yeah, I think he was trying to
- 56:22add another one to the mix. The end of the book where all
- 56:27the shit happens. He's getting nothing out of it.
- 56:31Like he loves the way she talks because she's fucking batshit
- 56:35crazy. So if she can't talk, then what
- 56:38are you getting out of it? So do we want to get into the
- 56:41third act or I guess, yeah, what is building up to be the climax
- 56:46of this book from a completely long pointless?
- 56:50Flat line. Yeah, it's just pure sex to
- 56:52this. Her being this predicament.
- 56:55OK, cool. There's a bit of a mystery
- 56:56there. Then obviously her meeting ends.
- 56:59So that's the next big thing that happens, them getting
- 57:02shipwrecked on this island, Right.
- 57:04OK, And then this is where the huge flat line was when nothing
- 57:07was going on. Yeah.
- 57:09And then we get to this point when we're like.
- 57:11A key What is happening? And it was kind of predictable
- 57:14what ends up happening. Yeah.
- 57:17Why are we given this plot? Who are we rooting for?
- 57:22Which is a question. We're rooting for a new one,
- 57:25honestly. Because we can't be rooting for
- 57:27Enzo, no. He's trash.
- 57:30We're not, really. Rooting for her.
- 57:31This is the only time he's apparently he's got, like, so
- 57:34much hair by the time they leave, but they've been there
- 57:36for 20 days. I I don't understand.
- 57:39Why they didn't just kill 20 months.
- 57:41They could have captured, killed him, subdued him on Day 2.
- 57:44Yeah. They get to a point where they
- 57:47uncover more about Sylvester's past and they find out that it
- 57:51wasn't in fact a ghost girl that was out in the windows at night
- 57:54time, but a real girl a. Real girl his.
- 57:58Daughter that he has had chained up drinking those little liquid
- 58:04milk protein drinks. Yeah, through a stomach.
- 58:08Oh. Which was quite foul.
- 58:11Quite foul. So he had cut out her tongue,
- 58:14sewed up her mouth, and her mouth was rotting.
- 58:16I actually am surprised she didn't die from the mouth.
- 58:19Rot in infection. Yeah, it took.
- 58:22Over a hard swing into horror. I'm not surprised, honestly.
- 58:27If you were on an island, why would you believe this man
- 58:30telling you about ghosts when there is a you can hear the
- 58:32screams and her kicking. On the roof above you.
- 58:35You're trying to get to the lighthouse beacon thing, but you
- 58:40don't think a real human's locked up there.
- 58:43That doesn't make any sense, right?
- 58:45You know what? Piss me off.
- 58:47Piss me off so much every time they heard the fucking chains
- 58:51walk past their room. And they didn't think to.
- 58:53Look under the door. Yeah, That's the first thing I
- 58:55would have done. I would have looked under the
- 58:57fucking door. Maybe it was two pitch black out
- 58:59there. They wouldn't see anything.
- 59:00No, you're telling me that fucking what's her name?
- 59:04Casey was walking around in the dark.
- 59:07Yeah. Do you not have fun?
- 59:09We're walking around in the. Fucking dark.
- 59:11Just moonlight for AT. Nine 9:00.
- 59:15And then he cracks a Why was she walking around?
- 59:18She was walking to his bedroom because he was raping her, so I
- 59:23didn't know she could. Freely walk around.
- 59:25No, aren't. So that's why she was getting
- 59:27locked in her room. So, oh, OK, she had the chains
- 59:31on her hands and legs. You know, the typical prison
- 59:35chains. And every night he'd lock her up
- 59:37so she can freely walk around at 9:00, but she's walking up to
- 59:40his bedroom. That's the only thing past their
- 59:42room. And then she walked back down.
- 59:45The older sister killed herself. Yeah, Trinity killed herself.
- 59:48Yep. He killed Raven.
- 59:50Trinity killed himself, and then he kept Casey.
- 59:53Fucking hell, I'd rather be the person that.
- 59:55Just died. But the poor girl was so
- 59:58groomed, she was conflicted. She was trying to help him leave
- 1:00:01and then she was like. Well known.
- 1:00:03I have to make them stay like she.
- 1:00:05Oh yeah, she was fully psychologically.
- 1:00:07Yeah, yeah. I just don't understand how they
- 1:00:10never put it together. Oh no, you've got all that time.
- 1:00:15Communicate with each other at something except vapid shit
- 1:00:18about how you love each other's fucking genitals and we might
- 1:00:20have gotten somewhere. See, if this was us, we would
- 1:00:24have figured this out day three. I know we would have been taking
- 1:00:29sleeping breaks, I reckon. We would have just looked at
- 1:00:31each other and be like, let's kill this bitch.
- 1:00:34I you know what I would never have done?
- 1:00:36What? The bit where she sees the girl
- 1:00:38out in the ocean and she's screaming.
- 1:00:40Yeah, I would have kept quiet and watched.
- 1:00:42I would just sat there and be like, what is she doing?
- 1:00:45Like, is that a real person? Dead ass like.
- 1:00:46Or am I actually? Watching.
- 1:00:48Exactly. Put your glasses on.
- 1:00:50Get off. Get off the piss bucket for one
- 1:00:52second. Is that a real bitch?
- 1:00:54Am I hallucinating? Bring it to the window.
- 1:00:57Bring your piss bucket to the window for a second.
- 1:01:00It's like, I know you're pissing because you're just continually.
- 1:01:03Pissing. We would have feeded out day
- 1:01:07three. I know that sounds really
- 1:01:09confident, but we would Nancy Drew the shit out of this
- 1:01:11situation. I'd be like, I'm not staying
- 1:01:13here. I'm sweaty.
- 1:01:15You and you know what? I didn't care how they were
- 1:01:17like. He doesn't know where the caves
- 1:01:20are. He's been.
- 1:01:21On that island. Forever.
- 1:01:23Like ever, he knows where every years.
- 1:01:26Why is there nothing else on the island?
- 1:01:28I know it's giving lost. There's probably a hatch
- 1:01:31somewhere. There's probably polar bears.
- 1:01:35Just fucking. There's the others.
- 1:01:37There's like all sorts of shit. I just don't understand.
- 1:01:43Wasn't there a bit where he was kind of lying about the ships
- 1:01:45too? Yeah, they could have easily.
- 1:01:48He could have easily communicated.
- 1:01:50So Soya literally goes, oh, I think he's lying about the ships
- 1:01:55because they come by more often and she's been watching, but she
- 1:01:59never tells Enzo until last minute.
- 1:02:01Yeah, I was like put your information.
- 1:02:03To fucking gather. Guys, you were like 3 weeks in.
- 1:02:10All you've been doing is fucking.
- 1:02:11I'm like if. You want to get off this island,
- 1:02:14You just need to work together. But you know what wouldn't?
- 1:02:16Every passing week, considering she doesn't have access to birth
- 1:02:19control, the chances of you getting pregnant because you're
- 1:02:23fucking every day, she. Said she had the bar.
- 1:02:27Oh, good. So somehow in magic medical
- 1:02:31land, without a real identity and she magically she wouldn't
- 1:02:36have Medicare. So yeah, but that probably would
- 1:02:39have been done in wherever she was.
- 1:02:41No, she would have done in Australia.
- 1:02:45Well, she could have walked. Into a free clinic and said I'm
- 1:02:4715, please give me birth control or I'm gonna have babies and
- 1:02:50they'd be like, OK, just give it to her.
- 1:02:51Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:02:51Fair, fair. So I'm sure they would have been
- 1:02:53white, but anyway. We got to go back.
- 1:02:55We got, you know. That wackling we're.
- 1:02:59Back by cycling. We will never.
- 1:03:01I'm not comfortable with continuing this book, so let's
- 1:03:03just circle into nothingness. Lots of people who go on the bar
- 1:03:06have a never ending period. Can you imagine being on this
- 1:03:09deserted island with these two idiots and having a continual
- 1:03:12period? I'm sure she's ovulating every
- 1:03:15second of the minute. And I'm sure he would have loved
- 1:03:17it because he'd be like, yeah, bring your period out into the
- 1:03:19water so we can have sharks circling around.
- 1:03:21Us. You know they do another sex
- 1:03:24bit. He's drowning her in The Cave to
- 1:03:26make it a nicer memory for her. Fuck.
- 1:03:29Off. Just cut off all of my oxygen at
- 1:03:31this point just just drowned me. Actually just.
- 1:03:35Drowned me just. Drowned me?
- 1:03:37Yeah. I just want to be drowned.
- 1:03:42I just wanted to. So they there is some kind of
- 1:03:45hatch? Yeah, I believe it's in the
- 1:03:47house or something. They're trying to find the
- 1:03:50beacon and they're like, we need to distract him.
- 1:03:54And she does this stupid thing where she goes downstairs and
- 1:03:57she's like, if I get him to think we're staying, he'll leave
- 1:04:00us alone. But then he actually asks her
- 1:04:02and she's like, no, I'm not staying.
- 1:04:04I would never stay. Because she's.
- 1:04:06She's like, let's give him false hope.
- 1:04:08I would never stay the 2nd that ship comes around.
- 1:04:12I'm leaving your ass. And then he goes full blackmail.
- 1:04:15He's like, Oh, well, I'm going to hand you in.
- 1:04:18And like, who cares? I'll be like hand me.
- 1:04:20In We're Stuck on an Island. I've got about two weeks.
- 1:04:23You're off your ass, mate. It's fine.
- 1:04:25They're not going to believe you anyway.
- 1:04:26Yeah, so they there's one point where they finally, physically
- 1:04:29overpower him. Did she push him down the Hatch
- 1:04:31thing? No, sorry, he slapped her.
- 1:04:34And that's when Enzo came down the stairs.
- 1:04:36Somehow this man just has a gun on hand and she was like, I'll
- 1:04:42be fine. She actually legs it.
- 1:04:44So she's in The Cave that he she thinks he has no idea where they
- 1:04:48are, but he's mapped out the fucking island probably his
- 1:04:51whole life. Enzo kicks down the door and
- 1:04:54then gets into like a tussle with Sylvester.
- 1:04:57And then he sees the cellar and pushes Sylvester in and then
- 1:05:01locks the door. Yeah, and check.
- 1:05:03If. He's dead, my bro.
- 1:05:05It's just enough. So the thing that pissed me off
- 1:05:09about this book is how is Sylvester pulling one over Enzo
- 1:05:15every? Single time, exactly.
- 1:05:17How I don't understand. This is an old man with.
- 1:05:22A tongue. Peg leg that can barely.
- 1:05:24Walk that was pushed down a cellar.
- 1:05:26Yeah. Which would have had a rickety
- 1:05:28ass ladder to get up as well, yeah, and locks him in.
- 1:05:33And then, of course, he runs to The Cave, because he knows that
- 1:05:35she would have gone there to hide.
- 1:05:37Yeah. And then instead of dealing with
- 1:05:39the situation, they have sex for a million years.
- 1:05:43Yep. And then they just wait till the
- 1:05:45next day. What?
- 1:05:48They're so confident that he's just trapped in there.
- 1:05:51He could have had a million escape.
- 1:05:53Route. It's his fucking.
- 1:05:54Light House. It's his house.
- 1:05:57And then they just confidently waltz back, just thinking it's
- 1:05:59all Gucci. He apparently goes and checks
- 1:06:021st and then he's like, well, he's missing.
- 1:06:05Who'd have thought that if we fucked until dawn, he might have
- 1:06:09had time to escape? He might have just laughed.
- 1:06:13Then. That's when they find Casey
- 1:06:16after that, because that's when they fuck on the table.
- 1:06:20That's when he finds the credit card again and he's pissed at.
- 1:06:24Us pissed again, Bro, You don't even have money right now.
- 1:06:27Don't even worry where. Is she going to spend it?
- 1:06:31What are you walking? Down the road to Maya's to get a
- 1:06:34new bikini. He's like you've.
- 1:06:36Fucking made it on. Just snap it in, half my babes
- 1:06:39like he finds it under the mattress and he's like.
- 1:06:42You intended to keep this, she? Slid it onto the mattress so you
- 1:06:45wouldn't see it. She's also stuck on the fucking
- 1:06:48island with you, yeah? He got really mad about it.
- 1:06:53It's. OK, that you rape her
- 1:06:55continually, but she's not allowed to be mad about.
- 1:06:58That. No, she's just supposed to be OK
- 1:07:01with it. Just.
- 1:07:02OK with it just. OK.
- 1:07:05It's OK, Emily, because her brother did worse.
- 1:07:09So this is when they finally find the fucking thing upstairs.
- 1:07:15The beacon. The beacon.
- 1:07:16That's when they find Casey Mouse Own.
- 1:07:19She's like, yeah, trying to get them to help, to leave.
- 1:07:23And then as soon as Enzo's running back downstairs, because
- 1:07:26apparently Sylvester has come out of nowhere again.
- 1:07:31I want to know what vitamins he's taking.
- 1:07:33I just I need to play the bowl. He's not this man's.
- 1:07:37Malnourished, he probably has to boil his water.
- 1:07:41He's eating space food years at a time.
- 1:07:44He's eating beans. He's farting up the storm.
- 1:07:49Beans are one of the best things you can eat though, so it makes
- 1:07:53a lot of sense. Beans are not vegetables.
- 1:07:57No wonder why. He's like Superman.
- 1:08:00Just so. I'm just.
- 1:08:02Enzo goes downstairs and he's like, you know, you got to stay
- 1:08:05up here just in case it's a gunfight.
- 1:08:07Oh. Leave.
- 1:08:09Leave her. Upstairs, with that meant to be.
- 1:08:11Part of it. Leave the bitch upstairs with
- 1:08:15the mentally and unhinged girl that's being trapped.
- 1:08:18Exactly Who can't communicate? You don't know whose side she's
- 1:08:21on. They already had a feeling they
- 1:08:22were like, Oh my gosh, she's just loyal to him.
- 1:08:27As soon as she hears the tussle and downstairs the wrestle and
- 1:08:31tussle, the wrestle and tussle, Casey's like I'm going.
- 1:08:34To kill her, she's like full. Head.
- 1:08:37Spins around her. Body.
- 1:08:40And so it's like, absolutely not and runs downstairs.
- 1:08:43Why don't you lock that bitch upstairs?
- 1:08:45Why does it have to be gunfight though?
- 1:08:46Just. Knock.
- 1:08:47The man out he's old man, but I don't.
- 1:08:51Understand what happens, because he doesn't even get shot and
- 1:08:55somehow Enzo ends up in the fucking cellar being knocked out
- 1:08:59by Sylvester pistol at that bitch.
- 1:09:02I don't care. What's going on?
- 1:09:05Don't understand how. How did he get?
- 1:09:09How are we supposed to believe that Enzo is this big muscly,
- 1:09:13big dicked man and he's getting taken out by this decrepit peg
- 1:09:18leg, peg leg, little gnome? Man.
- 1:09:22Not once, not. Twice.
- 1:09:24Like four or five times. I know I.
- 1:09:26Don't know what to say? No wonder why he wasn't feeding
- 1:09:29him the good steaks. He's like, what?
- 1:09:33How am I supposed to kill him if he's beefing?
- 1:09:37I. Just at this point, the wagon
- 1:09:41wheels have. All fallen off the plot.
- 1:09:43I was just insane. I was just like.
- 1:09:46And the. The problem is, this all
- 1:09:47happened at the last bit of the book.
- 1:09:49Yeah, so we're barely. I I know everything was so
- 1:09:54unbelievable and I know it's booked, so that's fine.
- 1:09:57But somehow I could function with the ocean.
- 1:10:00The shark fucking. Pride.
- 1:10:04The the identity theft, the fraud, the magpie circling,
- 1:10:08murdering her brother. I was like.
- 1:10:10Everything else was fine, but I did not.
- 1:10:13I could not get past the fact that Sylvester was take it.
- 1:10:16He was the Terminator. The Terminator.
- 1:10:19He was two fully functioning adults.
- 1:10:23So stupid we could take him and with like. 100 and.
- 1:10:28Something pounds just both of us together.
- 1:10:32I just no. Weight 200 dollar 200 you.
- 1:10:34Have a gun? Just lock the front door, aiming
- 1:10:37out the window and shoot the man who could bail him.
- 1:10:39He's not that. Hard oh.
- 1:10:41My God. Also, if I was running
- 1:10:45downstairs to get away from some psycho bitch in chains, I would
- 1:10:49have shut and locked the door. Oh.
- 1:10:51Easy. Or just trip.
- 1:10:53Her. She's in change.
- 1:10:58I. Casey was just so.
- 1:11:01Conflicted the entire time, though.
- 1:11:03Just As for Casey. Just As for Casey.
- 1:11:05Because every time they got one up on Sylvester, she came out of
- 1:11:08nowhere and fucking saved the day.
- 1:11:11Oh. I honestly was so pissed that I
- 1:11:15just didn't even write any more notes.
- 1:11:17The last note I wrote was literally about the bikini
- 1:11:21bottoms. I was just done.
- 1:11:22I was like, I'm not. Spongebob's not even having it.
- 1:11:25Rusty Bikini bottoms. Anyway, the only reason.
- 1:11:31Sorry, I'm like did this is? Actually more mad than pen pal.
- 1:11:33Or less mad more. I was so mad because I didn't
- 1:11:37understand how two fully grown adults, healthy fully grown
- 1:11:41adults, kept getting taken out by this man who could barely
- 1:11:45walk, you know? What I think it is, they exerted
- 1:11:47too much energy fucking all the time, That guy.
- 1:11:51Every afternoon. They're just like they're
- 1:11:53depleted, They're dehydrated, their fluids are gone.
- 1:11:56She's squirting everywhere. She has no.
- 1:11:59Electrolytes. Well, if she's squirting
- 1:12:01everywhere, he is hydrated, OK? He's lapping that up?
- 1:12:06No, but there's no electrolytes. They're dehydrated.
- 1:12:09They've got heat stroke from being outside trying to fish and
- 1:12:11not catching anything. The old man's just inside all
- 1:12:15day. What?
- 1:12:16Hydrated, Waiting. Waiting.
- 1:12:19They. Constantly were having sex in
- 1:12:21public places. Like he wasn't wanking out of
- 1:12:24the lighthouse building. Uh huh.
- 1:12:27At least they get to have their public sex at this.
- 1:12:29Place. True, true, true.
- 1:12:31I'm all for them having sex everywhere.
- 1:12:33Good for them, at least. No one else has to be subjected
- 1:12:36to it. Except poor Casey.
- 1:12:38Oh yeah, but she just. She just sit.
- 1:12:41I don't know how they did it, and that's what really drives me
- 1:12:44at all anyway. The only reason they pull one
- 1:12:49over this fucking imbecile of a man, is because Casey gets shot.
- 1:12:55She takes a shot for Enzo. I don't even think she takes a
- 1:12:58shot for Enzo. I think the old man just didn't
- 1:13:00line it up properly. Lined it, didn't line it up
- 1:13:04properly. Yeah, true and.
- 1:13:06Oops. And they were all in shock
- 1:13:08instead of just shooting him with the never ending bullets
- 1:13:11this man seems to have. He.
- 1:13:13Burns a hole in his throat with a gun.
- 1:13:16No, no. No, no.
- 1:13:19It also turns out that Sylvester is just offering people that
- 1:13:22show up on the island, and they're under in that cellar is
- 1:13:25just a gravesite. Enzo heats up the gun on the
- 1:13:29oven and jams it into his throat.
- 1:13:31That takes time. Yeah, and burns like a hole in
- 1:13:34his throat. And then they just go, oh,
- 1:13:37you'll have to take Trinity's identity.
- 1:13:41Yeah, that casually worked out well.
- 1:13:42And then she was panicking because she's like the police
- 1:13:44and everything. They're going to grill me.
- 1:13:46And then they didn't really. They're like, oh, she's kind of
- 1:13:48being trapped on this island forever.
- 1:13:50Hello. DNA test.
- 1:13:52Yeah, why isn't anyone checking? What is going on?
- 1:13:57Conveniently, Sawyer's identity has just evaporated because she
- 1:14:00could have been lost to. See just on this random suicide
- 1:14:05note that she wrote from Sawyer and then it turns out that her
- 1:14:08brother was consulting heaps of people.
- 1:14:12Heaps of children. Disgusting, but I.
- 1:14:15Understand how that came out, but she was still getting emails
- 1:14:20from people telling her to come back and fix it for him.
- 1:14:24Which it's kind of like nothing's going to happen in 20
- 1:14:27days like that quickly. Yeah, they're not going to
- 1:14:29suddenly be like, oh, there was actually 40 girls that were
- 1:14:32affected by him in the space of 20 days.
- 1:14:35Yeah. What happens between her and
- 1:14:37Enzo? What happens?
- 1:14:39Yeah. She moves in with him.
- 1:14:41Even though the police are, like, against it.
- 1:14:43They're like, you need to go to a women's shelter.
- 1:14:45You need therapy. You need somehow.
- 1:14:48She's very adjusted to life in the real world, and they didn't
- 1:14:51question the single thing. But she's going to change her
- 1:14:54name because she doesn't want to be Trinity.
- 1:14:56She wants her real name. And he's like, yeah, I know what
- 1:15:00you're changing your last name to and changes it to his last
- 1:15:03name somehow. She's really scared to go on a
- 1:15:07boat. So the helicopter like that's
- 1:15:09any better to the lab to show her the lamb.
- 1:15:12You the. Lab the Lamb.
- 1:15:14But they get. Married two years later and the
- 1:15:17book ends on them fucking in a shark cage.
- 1:15:21Of course. And she's like, conveniently,
- 1:15:24I'm not haunted by my brother anymore because my current.
- 1:15:26Boyfriend is horrible because I'm in such high stress all the
- 1:15:30time. I can never just live.
- 1:15:32I'm constantly being thrown into a fucking Shark Tank to have
- 1:15:36sex. At least we didn't get the baby
- 1:15:40or pregnancy trope. We didn't even get the anal to
- 1:15:43love Pipeline. That's because they don't love
- 1:15:45each other, actually. There's no I'm.
- 1:15:50Almost certain he puts a finger in her ass at some point.
- 1:15:53So we own the epilogue. No, it's somewhere in the.
- 1:15:56I think it's when they're in The Cave, but I'm not 100%.
- 1:16:00Him and his fishy, but I don't. Think he loves her?
- 1:16:03Of course not. I think he owns her.
- 1:16:05He hates women. Actually, in saying that, there
- 1:16:07is a bit where she goes, I know he's just obsessed with me and
- 1:16:11he doesn't love me because that's how my brother used to
- 1:16:13look at me. So even she's aware that he's
- 1:16:16just obsessed. So what are we going to rake
- 1:16:19this out of? Out of five.
- 1:16:21Piss buckets. How many piss buckets would you
- 1:16:26have filled up out? Of half of 1.
- 1:16:32We've never done half of 1. You know what I wanted to bring
- 1:16:35up? Because I like the Goodreads
- 1:16:37rating system because it helps give us a bit of an idea of what
- 1:16:40ratings actually mean. So on Goodreads, 1 equals.
- 1:16:43I didn't like it, 2 equals it was OK 3 = I liked it, 4 equals,
- 1:16:49I really liked it. And five equals.
- 1:16:51It was amazing. OK, all of one.
- 1:16:54Yeah, I didn't like it. I didn't like it.
- 1:16:56One piss bucket out of five, which I completely agree.
- 1:16:59I even agree with half a one bucket.
- 1:17:02Yeah, half a one piss bucket. The.
- 1:17:04Only reason I read this was because I was forced to.
- 1:17:09Because we were going to make this podcast.
- 1:17:11Yeah, but it's because of that. Sometimes when I read books, I
- 1:17:15get the weird, chesty, anxiety pain when they're going through
- 1:17:18things because I've written. Because it's like it must feel
- 1:17:21real, yeah. To me and.
- 1:17:23This whole time I was just wanting it to be done.
- 1:17:26Exactly. It was an uncomfortable book.
- 1:17:28And even if the main male character is morally grey or
- 1:17:32completely morally fucked, yeah. At least.
- 1:17:35Make him hot. Yeah, he.
- 1:17:37Was giving festy and. Horrible.
- 1:17:40They were both musty as fuck. I trying to be open minded about
- 1:17:44dark romance is sometimes hard because you you try and get over
- 1:17:48the non consensual things and you try and get over.
- 1:17:51But if the male character doesn't like the female
- 1:17:54character, yeah. Why?
- 1:17:57What are we doing here? They're not fighting to be
- 1:18:00together or they're not even proper enemies to lovers.
- 1:18:03What are we doing here? So anyway, as ranty as this one
- 1:18:07was, was there anything good about it?
- 1:18:13Crickets. Actual.
- 1:18:15Crickets. So this one was a total flush it
- 1:18:21down the toilet. Situation.
- 1:18:23Really, the only reason I read it was because I wanted to know
- 1:18:26what was upstairs. If I had a physical copy, I
- 1:18:29would tear it to shreds and set it on.
- 1:18:31File return it. So that's it.
