A review by loishojmark
Depth of Field by Riley Hart
3.0
2.5 stars. The story is written a bit corny and almost banal. The language fluctuates between being pornographic and sugary. To use the author's own words...
Shane and Van were rather boring and one dimensional. And neither did I feel their pain or their joy and love. I simply wasn't interested in their story or their corny art.
It was pretty obvious that the next book in this series would be Caleb's story. Because for someone not in this book and not terribly important for the plot, he was surely mentioned a lot. Oh but my mistake... I forgot that he was paramount in the epic crisis Van and Shane had... The giant, calamitous cataclysm that derailed their relationship... for approximately 5 minutes. But hey, it hurt!
Well I will not be reading Caleb's probably, almost heartbreaking story, because I think I'll have to give up reading Riley Hart's books. They are just not for me. They are not bad per se, they are just too light and fluffy for me (and I don't mean light/fluffy as in over the top funny, but as in thin and inconsequential). I made that decision before, but I forget or I convince myself that maybe this one... I like the angsty setting, so I get tempted beyond my senses. So no Caleb for me - unless I forget.
“Crazy in love.”
“Crazy cheesy.”
