Show Me Wonders
by Riley Nash
I’ve enjoyed discovering this new to me author over the last 2 weeks, I binged book 1 & 2 within a couple of days. Book 2 was really enjoyable so I was excited to dive into this one.
The plot/premise of this story is great, we already found out a little about Oliver & Jackson’s backstory in the previous books and there was a lot of intrigue on my part as to what exactly went on between them.
This book however didn’t quite deliver for me in the way that the previous 2 did. I loved the angst and at times poetic writing throughout the previous books, it felt a bit absent in this one.
When we meet Jackson & Oliver in this book they have just been victims of major train accident, leaving them as only survivors, in total dark, trapped under ground. During the span of a few days both build a connection, that despite both having never engaged in any same sex relations , any in Jackson’s case - any relations at all - to some sexual encounters.
I found the timing and circumstances around this quite poorly executed and it led me to be disappointed in their relationship quite early on.
I enjoyed some of the aspects of ‘after’ interesting enough, in particular the letter writing was very cute , however, later when both cross paths again and don’t recognise each other , even though all personality characteristics are still present , alongside only abbreviated first names I had to suspend some believes to be able to continue.
This has so much potential and I am a bit saddened by the fact that it wasn’t what I had hoped for but it won’t stop me from reading this author in the future. Lots of great potential.
PS…major giant penis…SO out of left field and only served to have the reader go WTF
