The callbacks to Blacktop Wasteland and Razorblade Tears were very lovely and unexpected and that shit always makes me smile :)

The Jordan Harper She Rides Shotgun reference on pg 110 had me SCREAMING I love that book

One chapter subtitle is “*ferally chews on book*” and same except I’m gnawing on my iPad and screeching this is amazing

WHOOOOO BOY

The daughter is a genius and the dad speaks only in verse?? Like he hasn’t said a single regular ass word?? Hello???

I’m so torn bc the writing is strong most of the time but the plot is so saggy and makes so little send sometimes and sometimes makes so much sense we’re hit over the head with it. Choose a lane pls

Having a secondary character named Ontario is throwing me off big time. Good thing he literally has so little characterization so far so I get to liken him to the province as often as I please :)

Forever Homeless

Things You May Find Hidden in My Ear

The wounds

Desert and Exile

We Love What We Have
1st poem

Everybody shut up, the master, aka Carmen Maria Mechado, is at work

Hey man I’m still all for it but the amount of grammatical errors and strange shifting in POV is throwing me off a bit

We know nothing about Jasper and only a little bit (which is repeated constantly) of Drew…its also kinda insta-love?? And I wanted to see them at the RenFair but we didn’t get to 😭

why does the second half of this book suck so much 🧐

“The Blue Angels didn’t need to be gotten since they could hear everything that was going down between Colt and Zip.” 🙃 that hurt my eyes to read tbh

Throwing up in my mouth a little with this insta-love tbh

There is just too much happening but not in the “this book is flying by” way. More like the “wtf is happening too many side plots” way. Determined to finish bc I think the spicy scenes will be good but lord alive if I ain’t a little bored

why is the best part of this book the mentioning of Star Trek: tng?

who edited this?? I’ll go out on a limb and say not a goddamn soul. Weird sentences, strange syntax, missing punctuation abound. Paid full price so will finish but will complain
