There are two woman in this book that exist as objects of sexual desire for male characters. BOTH of them are described as having "child bodies". As they say, if I had a nickel for every time this happened, I'd have ten cents, which isn't a lot but it's pretty messed up that it happened twice.

Seriously, authors, if every time your protagonist talks, the person they're talking to gets more and more frustrated with them, realize that your reader probably is, too.
But honestly, I can't imagine wanting to spend any more time in the mind of an author that writes about women like this. Yecch.
