It's the arrogance of men to think so little of women. And it'll be their downfall too.

It's been too long since I wanted to do a fanart of Auren, from the Plated Prisoner book series by Raven Kennedy The first time I drew her was a commission and I hadn't read Gild yet, so glad I picked it up 💛

finishing a book for the first time is wild, but finishing a series and knowing that you won’t get to read anything new about the characters you love so much is honestly devastating

"Love happens in all kinds of ways. Fast. Slow. In bits and pieces, or immediate. Filled with lust, one-sided longing, a snap realization never noticed before. Deeply. Thoroughly. Love is a whisper we didn't hear or a sound that drums in our ears and drowns out everything else." - Slade

You know what makes me laugh and amazes me ?

That people complain about Gold, the first volume of Raven Kennedy's series, for being toxic and not a romance, an apology for the worst things there is, whereas... it's not a romance.

The story of Auren and Midas is not a romance, and the author does not romanticize this relationship at any point.

Auren will eventually break away from Midas who will pay for his horrible actions. At no time was their relationship romanticized.

And I sincerely worry about the people / antis who criticize this book in the opposite direction, thinking that the book glorifies this relationship and romanticizes it.

These people shouldn't read books. They don't know how to read at this stage.

And if they think this story between Auren and Midas is being portrayed as a romance, I worry about their reading comprehension skills, truly... Either that, or they're being willfully stupid.

The worst part is that I've seen people say that the fact that it stands out in the other volumes is no excuse because volume 1 still exists.

Except that once again, the story of Midas and Auren is not and never has been a romance ! This is clear abuse, both physical and mental !

This person also claims with this intelligent thought that the author could have completed the story of these two in two chapters instead of continuing in a vacuum to romanticize gore, and that amazes me.

Victims of abuse often live in a repeating cycle and don't get out of it (if they ever get out of it...) for a long time. You already need the mental trigger to understand being a victim of abuse.

These people once again have no reading skills.

Don't you like reading stories with complicated themes ? Well don't read it !

But don't come and say that the book is poorly done because you didn't understand it.
