review 1: Everyone wants Idrys. That was a bit hard to get used to, even though the author reminded about it every couple of pages. And the accent was off-putting, too...I just couldn't reconcile the gorgeous model looks and that accent.And the whole attraction to a 15-year old was creepy. But, Idrys & Trystan together were so hawt. I love enemies-to-lovers theme, and these two delivered enmity in spades. And BTW, there is NO menage here..I don't get why people tag it as one.
review 2: Perhaps 2.5 stars?Obviously I'm the odd man out. The writing was very good, as it got me to finish this book although I really didn't like Idrys. Nope, not really. The start was promising, it was engaging, but then the story progressed to his life in York. And there I really didn't like hi... morem very much anymore. Yes, I got it, he looked great, his unusual haircolor and height and everyone was in awe over him. that was mentioned all the time, I got it after the first few. Additionally the written dialect/slang was giving me problems the longer I had to read it. It was ok as an implementation or setting the scene, but at some point it got distracting. I liked the other characters in this story, the sister and best friend Theo, the parents were only minor characters, also the other roommates were a nice addition.For long parts the story moved in circles. And suddenly there was a development out of the blue, that was disturbing and also brought light to why Idrys was acting/living they way he did.I didn't like the use of words like whore or fag, it was totally normal for everyone to call everyone else, well mostly Idrys, like that. Yes, it might be normal for some circles, it might be I'm too sensitive or my English isn't good enough to get the underlying 'deep meaning', perhaps it was used as a stylistic device. Might be, didn't work for me.Ok, after all this rambling, it was written in an engaging way but it's another one of those book where I didn't like what I was reading. I think I need a new shelf for these books. less
