The Bedding of Boys by Edward Lorn
3.0
Oh boy. This book. Let me start off by saying that this is the first book I've read by Mr. Lorn and I want to go back to the beginning because I very much enjoyed his writing. But this book was INTENSE and it definitely isn't for everyone.
Read the synopsis, I won't rehash it, but Regina is one of the WORST humans I have read about. The content of this book brings the book Tampa to mind, as the subject of sex with underage boys is still a thing here, but there's a bigger horror/supernatural element. The sexual element is what dropped the star rating for me. I will admit that as I was reading, I couldn't see how everything fit together. Then all of a sudden it clicked together and I loved it. Also the ending was brilliant, and made me want to go back to the beginning of the Bay's End stories. Like I said, this book is not for everyone and its pretty fucked up, but I think the Edward is a gifted writer and I can't wait to read more.
