Jack 💜 reviewed The Mammoth Hunters by Jean M. Auel (Earth's children, #3)
Review of 'The Mammoth Hunters' on 'Goodreads'
2 stars
An awful, C- soap opera with some of the worst written sex I’ve ever seen in my life (excuse, Pleasures (capital P)) - this book is agonizing at times, and yet strangely compelling. It’s very much a disaster that I can’t look away from.
Ayla and Jondalar are the worst idiots I’ve ever had the displeasure of reading about. I’ve seen middle schoolers with more emotional maturity than these two twits.
Poor Ranec. He shouldn’t have had to suffer through both Ayla and the author’s racist narrative. How many times do I see Auel describe Ranec’s blush as ‘hidden’? Does she not know that Black people blush?
