myriad obsessions

K. Ancrum:
I was a little bit confused on the dynamic between Blake and Tomas and Tomas and James. Are they a poly relationship or are Blake and Tomas just physically affectionate friends?
K. Ancrum
Blake and Tomas are BFFs.
Blake is straight. James is Bisexual. and Tomas is gay.
Tomas courts James, in the background of the book, through providing himself as secondary family support through care and preoccupation with Charlie. (which is I like, bc he's not aggressively romantically approaching someone who is both younger than him and a trauma victim. But instead is showing that he can be a support and waiting for James to notice and choose him)
Blake and Tomas met each other during their combined vulnerability phase -Blake with fighting and Tomas with addiction- and Blake feels very protective of Tomas.
I wanted Blake and Tomas to give off this sort of energy: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/gay-be...

I really adored The Wicker King. But I've been reading some reviews that constantly say that August and Jack's relationship was unhealthy. Is that what you intended for the reader to see? Because I didn't see it that way. They were both so "us against the world" and I thought it was rather beautiful. Kind of shocked that people think it was an ugly thing. I get that they were codependent, but severely unhealthy?

Thank you for telling Jack & August's story. It felt all to familiar. Nice to know there's hope, for Jack and August, and for anyone who finds themselves in a similar relationship. Along with Jack & August, I found Peter and Roger intriguing - like there was more behind them then was being revealed - any possibility of the twins having their own story?

Hi! I just finished the ARC of The Wicker King and loved it. It was so unique and intense. I have one question I desperately want to know - after the surgery and everything they went through, is it possible for August and Jack to have a healthier relationship going forward? Or will they always be super codependent? I just want them to be happy, or whatever their version of happiness is.
