Prince of the Sorrows by Kellen Graves

4.0

This book is good soft fun, if by good soft fun you mean mental anguish and violence wrapped up in a satisfying-yet-unheathy relationship.

I know that's how I mean it.

Prince of the Sorrows isn't what I'm used to and is part of my attempts to have more fun with my life. The book is dark and moody, and deals with a lot of trauma, which is definitely up my alley. And I owe it a debt of gratitude for keeping me company for weeks at a time as I settled in for bed.

The book hits a lot of sad and beautiful topics around sense of self, sense of relationship, and how people treat each other. I found it touching at times and if you're looking for a queer indie read about fey and also traumatized lovers, this one may be fore you.
