literary_saint_clair 's review for:
Angels Before Man
by rafael nicolás
On pause for now. Why? I was not emotionally ready for this.
Literally half of the book was endearing and about self discovery. But then I found the trigger warnings and the story took a drastic turn.
If we look at this book at face value, it's about an adult child in a toxic relationship with his father that grooms him. I could also argue that Lucifer suffers from religious trauma.
I was rooting for Lucifer and Michael to be together, hoping this retelling would also give Lucifer a happy ending. But the more I read the more I realized that wasn't likely.
I think what it was for me was that the aftermath from their father's relationship was too realistic to real trauma.
I wished I ended the book when Lucifer and Michael visited Earth and that could have been their happy ending.
