    Most light novelists are terrible at writing women.

    Kumo Kagyu (Goblin Slayer) can’t write a single scene with a woman in it where he doesn’t make a comment about their body.

    High Priestess

    She placed a hand on her not-yet-ample chest.

    High Elf Archer

    Dwarf Shaman found that his stubby fingers were too slow to stop High Elf Archer, who chuckled triumphantly and puffed out her little chest.

    Witch

    "See, you…” Witch lifted her luscious body from her chair.

    Cow Girl

    Thank you so much! I’ll treasure it!” Cow Girl said, clasping the shell to her ample bosom and grinning.

    Sword Maiden

    Her sheer, white garments gleefully exposed the voluptuous lines of her body.

    I stuck with it because the side plots were interesting, but I dropped it once it become clear that the main story wasn’t going anywhere.
