Un tome introductif que j'ai lu un peu par désœuvrement, je dois bien l'avouer.

L'idée de départ est bien trouvée, à savoir cette façon plutôt futée d'introduire les personnages qu'on croisera dans les tomes de la série Ballsy boys. On fait la connaissance d'une flopée d'acteurs pornos gays, réunis le temps dans un club gay, et à chaque chapitre, c'est un personnage différent qui assume la narration, ce qui permet de grappiller quelques bribes d'informations et d'aiguiser notre curiosité.
Pour ma part, c'est évidemment Tank & Brewer qui ont attiré mon attention, j'espère que leur tome (car je me doute bien qu'il y en aura un) sera à la hauteur de l'animosité qu'il y a entre eux!

Well, I've read and re-read this series three times, so that should tell you something, right?

Fun MM series

A fun low angst series to binge read. Sweet and spicy MM (and one MMM) romances featuring the stars and owner of a gay porn studio.

Manche Bände haben mir besser gefallen als andere, aber ich wollte immer weiterlesen und jetzt ist es Schade, dass es aus ist.

Enjoyed this series a lot more than I anticipated! I loved the backgrounds of the boys & the men they loved, showing superficial appearances demonstrate little of the internal reality of people. The boys (and the story) were an excellent example of “don’t judge a book by its cover”.

This is an introduction to each character, and there isn't really that much of a story here.

I don't really know how to rate this, but since I went straight in and preordered the first book in the series, I guess this deserves a high rating.

This whole series was excellent! I enjoyed everything I have read by both authors, and wish I hadn’t waited so long. I was leery of stories featuring porn stars, because of how poorly they might be portrayed, but I loved all of them!

Each story had a different dynamic and trope, and I don’t think I could pick a favorite. Having the box-set to read all in a row was awesome! Definitely plan to re-read. Don’t forget to read the spin-offs about the brother of one character, Ranger, and the series with Daddies set in Vegas.

Short but intriguing introduction to this new series from two authors who've been gathering good press in their debut series' and who've joined forces for this look inside the lives of a bunch of gay porn stars.

Not bad...

But not great either. I liked the stories but not the actual characters in them. Most of the time I can ignore that but when its a bundle, one can't just get past not liking who you are reading about.
