Queer as a Five-Dollar Bill by Lee Wind
3.0
ARC Review: Received for free via Netgalley for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
CW: queer slurs, ableist slurs, homomisia
The take away for this is: aw, that was nice. I liked it, and at one point could not put it down despite desperately needing to sleep.
I think the thing that made me kind of end up not loving it as much as I thought I would is how some of the things turned out. I'm not sad about the way things turned out, and probably would've hated any other ending, but yah know....
It was Jonathon and Makenzie. Like, it's just those two characters that got me iffy. Makenzie dating Jonathon after all the shit Jonathon put Wyatt through, lol no. Like, he forgave them coz and all but nah, by the end I was not here for them. I don't trust them. Wyatt deserves a better best friend if I'm being honest, he deserves someone who doesn't deliberatly hurt him by dating someone who's tormented him for years. Like nah, not here for that.
But other than that, this was a good read and I enjoyed it and I'm glad everything worked out in the end and it has a happily ever after and in a perfect world Wyatt and Martin love their best gay lives.
Oh, and I appreciate that although Wyatt was more focused on Lincoln being gay, he didn't end there, he did mention that Lincoln might be bi (even though it always seemed like an afterthought). So yah. Cool read, definitely.
