The Last Honest Woman by Nora Roberts

1.75

it was an ugly, hard and unpleasant book. i didn’t like mmc. he was supposed to be a former investigative reporter but he went into the assignment of writing a book blind, trusting only gossip and tabloids. don’t reporters have to be objective? 

mmc’s stand on women:

“Women were, after all, born with guile. They were fashioned to masquerade as helpless, vulnerable creatures. Until they had their hooks in you. To shake free, you had to bleed a little. Then if you were smart, you took a hard look at the scars from time to time to remind yourself how life really worked.”
