Chapter 29 comments:
OK, so now that is settled. Saeki surely is his mother, and they had sex , Sakura surely is his sister, and they will also have sex at some point . What is still left is how exactly Nakata fits into the puzzle…
Anyway, the book is picking up so much speed that I keep thinking it should be over in the next 100 pages or so, but there’s still 400 pages left
And then those sex scenes… sounded pretty boring tbh I mean, I shouldn’t be surprised as I’ve met enough men who think that this kind of “wham-bam, thank you ma’am” is the epitome of good sex, but somehow I had hoped that an author (of all persons) might come up with something more flavorful. Anyways… on to the next chapter
Not surprised that some of you came here just to comment on Chapter 29. I assumed that would happen and came here to check out the situation right after finishing that chapter.
By the way, I personally didn’t find the sex scene to be boring or poorly written. Maybe a little overly graphic. But then again, I am a guy, so maybe it doesn’t take much to impress me. All I will say is that the situation alone was enough to make me feel unsettled and somewhat disturbed.
I totally don’t blame you! And in my opinion it’s not really about “being easily impressed” but instead about “where is the focus”. I’ve met a bunch of guys [trigger warning nsfw] for whom the most important things are penetration and orgasm. And I mean, I can understand, it’s totally in the interest of nature to behave like that. Unfortunately, I don’t roll like that and so this description of “woman is already hot when she meets the dude” → “woman quickly goes for penetration” (which is the standard topic in porn material aimed at dudes) is not something I can relate to too much, plus it feels somewhat unnatural to me. That’s why I said it was boring.
Yeah, that’s perfectly understandable. I think it’s safe to say that the scene was written from a male perspective with a male reader in mind - regardless of whether or not that was a conscious decision.
Now, my question is, what demographic was the Johnnie Walker scene aimed at?
