Main Character Flaws

SPOILERS - Let me preface this review by stating that I was given a free copy of this audible to listen to in exchange for my review. I am a 50+ year-old female and I believe I am not the intended audience. The writing style made this book very easy to read, and the author is a strong writer. Unfortunately, it’s the story that I really struggled with. Avery is a young, intelligent, independent woman living with her girlfriend in Las Vegas. She becomes infatuated with the wrong man. He treats her bad. I mean really bad. Yet she keeps going back. I thought the book would identify some trauma in Avery‘s life that would explain this. Yes she had a bad break up, but that’s not uncommon. She was abandoned by her parents, but that’s barely explained and seemingly not the cause for Avery’s behavior. On her first date with Kyle, he makes out with and then leaves with another girl right in front of Avery. He humiliates her by pretending not to know her at the pool. He tries to rape her. The list goes on. I think the worst part was him admitting to murdering his parents, while robbing Avery and she STILL does nothing. Granted I am much older than the characters in this book, but I would sincerely hope that people of the main character’s age don’t accept being treated this way by men as normal. I read a couple reviews where people had mentioned Avery’s actions were typical…YIKES! I hope not!
