Reply to comment by ohmyglobyouguys in Verity by Colleen Hoover was awful. 2 star rating by hasimple
Why do you think that it's the author and not the character she wrote that finds it cute?

Because you write what you know and every single one of her books romanticizes abuse to a disgusting degree.

Lots of actual people romanticize abuse. That might be a reason her books are popular. The drama and the strife. It has an audience, which is probably why she writes about it.

Yeah, that’s concerning and sad. Every single one of those people needs therapy, not a trope.

Having an interest in dark thing doesn't mean you need therapy. There's a bunch of people into true crime. Kidnappings and murders and stuff. Do they all need therapy?
Just because you're not into it doesn't mean people are crazy for being curious about a side of life that's different from theirs.
