A review by bybookandbone
Ferryman by Claire McFall
Did not finish book.
I couldn't keep going... I got 70% of the way through by sheer stubbornness and the fact that I was listening to the audiobook.
Dylan is pathetic and immediately becomes obsessed with a cardboard cut-out who tells her he only looks the way he does to make himself attractive to her and manipulate her into trusting him (Jesus Christ).
Tristan (pronounced Tris-chin in the audiobook, actor was fantastic the name is just dumb) is the cardboard cut-out who's thousands of years old. He once thinks about how fucked up that is as Dylan is a child but quickly stops caring.
The fact that Dylan is a virgin comes up and is a plot point (gross). The romance is so repulsive that I made a face every time they touched and was so grossed out I turned off the audiobook before they kissed and dnf'd.
There's no story... just two boring people walking through a wasteland day after day. The book may have been serviceable if they interjected what was happening with Dylan's parents and friends after they discover her death. As it stands, it's just a pile of boring with a romance that's gross.
