No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

It being a romance in the beginning works well, especially with the reveal.
Continuing the romance through to the end should have been handled a lot differently.
The best explanation I've heard for continuing the romance after the reveal is down to marketing.
No one wants to take a date to a romance that turns into a horror, especially when the horror is the guy being a predator, so you either give the twist away in trailers and lose half your draw or try to pretend the creepiness was necessary somehow.
