Unteachable by Elliot Wake
4.0

What this book has:
1. Sublime writing
2. Stellar characterization
3. Gorgeous sex scenes
4. An amazing first half
5. Great dialog

The plot isn't what I'd call mind-blowing and it renders the second half of the book pretty weak and sure, the ending is corny and cheesy but this book is good.
It is really damn good. Even if you take out everything else, THE WRITING.
Omfg, it deserves five fucking stars for the writing alone.
Maybe I'm just ignorant but I don't like classics because I don't have the patience for them. And I think it is something else entirely to create a book with such a heady atmosphere without the book being 60 % description and narration.
