pickI personally really enjoyed this read. It was also quite funny at times.
so-soTV-writer Elliott's 6-year relationship with Gus implodes after he books a session with a sex worker but he learns to be more comfortable with himself and starts to overcome his addictions.
A book that is probably funnier if you are part of the milieu depicted but there were too many refs to TV shows I don't watch or singers I'm only marginally aware of, if that, not to mention places & brands I don't recognise for me to really enjoy it
‘People who know loss know this : there‘s nothing harder to let go of than an already-gone thing‘
pick“Just by looking” at this cover, I judged it to be a melancholy read, but I sure was wrong! This is hilarious, sex-filled, awkward, but also features frank portrayal of a disability and facing one‘s struggles, though the tone is light-hearted. Narrated, perfectly, by the author, this audiobook begins with a description of the main character‘s bf‘s penis. Self-discovery of a rich gay man with cerebral palsy in LA with the help of a sex worker.
If you‘re trying to write a second-chance romance, you have to tell me WHY they broke up the first time. Now I don‘t know if I want them together or not bc idk what their problems are. Wasn‘t fake dating really, they get back together quickly. I wanted to love it, was excited for the queer Black love but these characters are annoying and underdeveloped. Hudson is so entitled, non communicative, & kian needs to stand tf up, stop falling for this
pickThe snark and humor in this book is HILARIOUS but it‘s BEYOND RAUNCHY 🌶️🍆🔥 However, don‘t let the laughter fool you…there‘s a lot of heart and soul to this story too. Elliot, a gay Hollywood screenwriter, who has cerebral palsy must confront his destructive behaviors and biased assumptions. This was really fun. Read by the author.
I‘m going to be real…this book is a little raunchy, but here is the first line. I couldn‘t not share. #FirstLineFridays
“My boyfriend Gus has a beautiful penis. It‘s big and thick without being too big or too thick.”
Thanks to @Reviewsbylola for putting this on my #ReadersRadar because it is really fun!

Vagabonds! by Eloghosa Osunde
Despite things still being rough at home, I was able to take a few hours yesterday and go to my local BN, where I picked up Exiles and the Mandel, and my local indie (Bluestocking Social in Evansville, IN), where I picked up the tagged and the new Iain Reid. Yay! 🥳🎂
I wanted to use my print library more, and I finally did!! I picked up Rebecca and Bliss Montage there. Such a fun birthday treat!! 👍🏻🎉
