"Up to 3rd chapters it’s exactly what I need after watching the Jane Austen book club. It’s Austen inspired but not wordy or heavy." — Jan 01, 2026 03:45PM

The representation in THSI book was banging : like idk if the chronic pain was well described and written but I felt like it was accessible in description of it . LOVED THE AUTISTIC REPRESENTATION!! like it meant a lot to me since I realised it was the first book where a character who shoes autistic traits was viewed as desirable/a love interest WITHOUT being changed in anyway. And I love how like well it was written , I swear I could ahve played bingo on stuff I did and stuff Clem did but that made me feel so seen and happy. (It’s why the book went from 4 to 5 stars)

I’m a sucker for interconnecting stories or characters (which is why I like Love Actually so much ) so I was so hyped whenever Wes and Vince turned up. Also love how they made Wes’s tage “Wager1” as in the title of the last book, clever af also means I didn’t have to Remember Wes’s tag from the last book, since I forgot . Also I’ve got a feeling that they conflict will always be a heart wrenching accidental (well intended) betrayal with links to that evil pharmaceutical company (I can’t be asked to spell it ) .

The PLOT TWISTS!! We’re so good ,even if I predicted a few of them, but tbh I didn’t predict all of them (and my autistic ass normally predict twists ) but juts to mention I LOVED the on going mystery of What Justin did to end up there with so much guilt, like the Jose mystery which was super surprising AND ONG DID I HATE ANTONYS GUTS but damn I didn’t predict like anything he did .

There so many quote I could say were my favourite quote or moment cause OMFG it was so good like so many analogies of vampirism as a disability or as queerness or as like unconditional acceptance. And gods do I love a good analogy.

The only complaints is that it nearly made me cry in the car, Justin’s reluctantly to accept his own happiness and what he deserved and I understood why , it was juts SOOOO FRUSTRATING!! it took me a while to warm up to the characters but that might be cause I took a break of reading BUT by the end I LOVED ALL OF THEM!!

P.S.thank you D.N.Bryn for writing this ,enabling myslef to see someone who thinks like me in a book this damn good ! ...more "

May the Best Man Win by Z.R. Ellor

8 notes & 8 highlights

What cis people don’t get is that it’s not the wrong clothes, the wrong name, the wrong pronoun. It’s the strangling feeling, like you’ve been buried alive and are struggling to breathe, like you don’t exist. That the most important part of ...more
