Touched

This book was just completely awful. The pacing is SO bad - it will go hundreds of pages with nothing happening except awful people bickering for no reason and then suddenly everything happens for maybe 20 pages, then we are back to bickering again.

All of the characters are annoying and act like teenagers despite ostensibly being professionals (one of whom is 400 years old). Marnie hates Mark because she thinks he was lying to her about being engaged when they had an affair, but acts no differently toward him once she finds out he's telling the truth. The vampire is gross and condescending at all times. Narration compares “vampire” to the N-word. Every single female character aside from the protagonist is evil and described in the most misogynist way possible while the characters make weird generalizations about what men and women do.

Apparently this is a series but I genuinely couldn't bear to try another one of these.
