“The Mister” should really be about a serial poisoner who secretly targets fresh veggies at the grocery store. Pretty sure it would have a better plot.

The Narrator

Doom Bar is indeed the name of a beer from Cornwall, a fact that I know despite not being British because I read it in a mystery novel a few years ago.

The Narrator

No, Albania was a communist country during the Cold War, and it did repress religion quite a bit. People continued to practice privately, of course, but all churches and mosques were destroyed or repurposed and a 1967 law made preaching religion illegal and punishable by 3-10 years in prison. But I doubt E.L. James made her female lead older than thirty, so she wouldn't be old enough to remember it.

I can't believe we're only half way through this monster. I'm impressed/appalled that someone has managed to make something this boring, and at the same time insufferable and misinformed, yet had it published.

Religion isn't banned in Albania? It's a muslim country. It's also not a communist one. I know this is the least of this, but I'm so confused

Hours after watching this, "benign smile" just will not leave my mind. My son has a benign heart murmur, my father has a benign tumor. I did look it up and benign does mean gentle and kind, but those are like the 3rd or 4th entry down. This just disturbs me. Take the thesaurus away from this woman.

I feel like it wasn't a third person omniscient. I thought Alyssa was just reasserting that she doesn't want to talk about her father... in her own brain. To herself.
