Re: Fandoms/works that FS recced you that you DIDN'T like?

I think it works for me in large part because I don't think she does say she's not interested in him. I think she says she's interested in him but doesn't want to get married. But it's a thin line to walk and I totally get not digging it.

To me it seemed like more than just a disinclination to marry, particularly at first. She doesn't even KNOW Wimsey, aside from hearing about his exploits as a detective. Wimsey proposes marriage the first time he meets her in person, when she's in prison. At the end of "Strong Poison", he continues to express his intent to marry her, even though she hasn't even consented to a romantic relationship of any kind with him, which... yikes.

Obviously she changes her mind eventually, but it didn't feel at all like a natural, healthy progression of a relationship. It felt like a "this works out because he's the hero of the series" wrap-up.

Eh. It doesn't read that way to me, but fair enough, I can get how you'd feel that way.
