While I read it last year, it wasn't as bad as I remembered (hence the one-star rate increase). There were, nevertheless, aspects that frustrated me a little --- many the same as last year, but I also considered more of why Hall might've used certain traits the way she did, which made it more tolerable. I was still a little frustrated with the dimness of Luc's coworkers, though.
Moderate: Abandonment
Minor: Homophobia
There are some sex snippets (not quite whole scenes, but usually the beginning of what could've been a scene) along with some sexual innuendos which may be uncomfortable for some readers.
