Indlæser... Murder at White Oakaf Marko Realmonte
Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog.  KinzieThings | Jun 16, 2020 |   This is so many things that are fantastic to read... a romance, a comical romp at a boy's school, a mystery, friendship...devotion...and more. It's cleverly written with a complex cast of fully-fleshed-out characters. It took me a little while to get in tune with the switching of narrators, but in the end, that gave the story a lot more depth. Be warned, even though the story is light-hearted, it can also be hard-hitting. If you are the kind of reader who is always on the lookout for a story that's more than just a "queer romance" then this one is worth a read. I like that the relationships matter to the plot of the story and they're not just sidelines that make the novel more enticing. Bravo Marko! Hoping there will be a sequel!
