new rule cishet men aren’t allowed to describe women in their books ever
this ones not even that bad but buddy this shit is everywhere. don’t even get me started on the descriptions in altered carbon, I wish I was kevin, 19
since some of book twitter found this I feel it’s worth mentioning this is an excerpt from The Maltese Falcon which is a detective noir classic 💀 if this trainwreck can become a classic I have beyond faith in your capabilities, write on friends

OKAY since this is still getting interaction, I should warn you that you won’t find much book content on my account. if you’re looking for well written women, let me point you towards @SierraWritesYA, a talented YA author, and @fieldbones, a powerful poetess. 💛
