The Love Song of Ivy K. Harlowe by Hannah Moskowitz

4.0

The Love Song of Ivy K. Harlowe by Hannah Moskowitz was a quick but a roller coaster ride.
Literally everything happens in this book. There’s never a dull moment in this reading experience.
In the beginning I thought the setting of the book was quite unrealistic.
I mean literally a house burns down and the owner is not informed at all about it and a minor works front desk at a strip club. It doesn't sound very realistic.. or legal.

But as the story went on, either it got more realistic or I didn’t notice as much, but I really started to enjoy the book.

I loved how the characters developed, showing their multiple facets as the story went on. The characters are complex and conflicted, it made them realistic and relatable.

What starts out as your average contemporary book/romance actually deals with more serious topics as the story progresses.

I really appreciated how the book is full of queer characters but doesn’t focus on coming out or exclusively of the fact that the characters are queer. It is just a known and natural fact about the characters. It feels so refreshing to read.

Overall, I recommend this book.
