SAPPHIC BOOK BINGO 2022: POC CHARACTER
Wow. I don't really know where to start with this one, but I loved it so much.
Skye as a character was unlike anyone I've read. She's aware of her immature behaviours, but continues to do them anyway. She runs away from relationships, but eventually finds a home with a found family. She goes through forgiving those who have wronged her as well as forgiving herself for her part in them. Her grown is so powerful and written so well.
Speaking of the writing, it was sooooo good. I loved the details and the pacing. There were moments of hilarious commentary form Skye as well as serious, raw situations.
I found the plot to be slow-moving, but I didn't mind it. It lent to the character development well. The plot itself was something out of a soap opera on paper, but it didn't quite read like one (which isn't necessarily good or bad). I was constantly entertained, from either laughing at Skye and her wits or wanting to strangle her to stop being an ass.
If you ever need to find a well-rounded three-dimensional character, look no further than the characters in this book.
