Seriously. This is also just dumb. Seriously if you decide it’s ok so sexualize, go ahead and make a sexy character. This one’s the second in-ass thong in the game, seriously!? And now she slaps herself, multi-ass smash ultimate move... Just dumb. Read more

I will definitely be re-reading the first two books before the third, whenever that comes out... I’m with you, my feelings are mixed on the release of the third book, but... I WANT THE THIRD BOOK! O_O Read more
