An LGBTQIA+ read involving a book store and a mysterious power struggle over secret information sounded like a perfect pick for me. Unfortunately, I didn't love this. The writing style didn't quite work for me, and I didn't much enjoy the character relationship. The pacing also felt a bit off, and it's obvious the author doesn't know what PTSD is like but wanted to use it as character flavor anyway.

So intensely readable ahh. I am shelving it as a romance but it is more like a mystery with a bit of kissing sometimes. It was really so excellent I didn't want to put it down at any point and I have full intention of reading the next book. It reminds me of the tone of something like Grantchester and that can only be a good thing.

I do like a gay period romance. While it's nothing groundbreaking and is fairly predictable from the mystery angle, I found it a quick and enjoyable read.
