I can’t really describe how I feel about this book. I understand the message it was trying to portray, that what you once believed your sexuality entailed can change, since sexuality is so fluid, and that love doesn’t necessarily mean you want to have a whole life with a person and involve them in everything, but i don’t know, it just feels like at times it missed the point slightly.
There were some beautiful lines in this novel, so i did appreciate that, but i’m not a fan of books that don’t use speech marks when someone is talking, it always makes it so much harder to follow.
I don’t really understand what Olivia and Eve saw in Nathan, it kind of just felt like a story about two women following a mediocre man just because he could fuck well?
I just found this kind of boring at times, and i’m not a huge fan of lit fic so that probably had something to do with it.

icarusandthesun's review against another edition
completely character-driven so the fact that i didn't enjoy the characters and their dynamics made the book basically uninteresting to me. lots of threesomes, some relatable quotes, talk of power dynamics and sexuality i couldn't relate to. and after the first 4 threesomes it just got boring.
