Reviews and Comments

Didn't care for this book at all. Not only were none of the characters really likeable, but it's supposed to be a romance and it didn't really seem believable that they liked each other. Besides, the setting never felt plausible either. It's a future society that somehow retains social structures from the last century.

I didn't so much read this one, as use it for research for a story I was writing, but it was very interesting anyhow.

My turn to read the library book finally came up. I enjoyed the book but didn't find anything especially compelling about it. And some of the motives for the murders seemed pretty flimsy.

I discovered this book through a video where the author talks about its subject matter: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dk0sJP9C9-I The video itself is pretty interesting.

Interesting book, but I didn't like it as much as Red Team Blues.

This thing is billed as a romance but it's more of a supernatural mystery. Yeah, the plot depends on people being willing to sacrifice their lives for love, but there's never a clear sense of why they'd care for each other that much.

The plot might be more understandable if you grew up with Christian iconography, but I didn't. There are a lot of demons and angels running around, behaving in ways that don't make much sense to me.

This is not something I'd have chosen on my own. Decided to participate in #queerromanceclub reading group on Mastodon, and this is the book that won the vote for what we'd all read and discuss in January. Here's hoping I like it!

I've never talked about a book with a group of people before so it'll be an interesting experience. (Group is open for anyone who wants to participate, by the way.)

I've read about half of this and probably won't finish it. That's mainly due to lack of time currently, and the fact that it's printed. I don't really have a comfortable spot to read anything that doesn't have backlighting.
