A review by queerlitloft
Music City Dreamers by Robyn Nyx
4.0
I wasn't sure what to expect from Nyx's foray into writing a story that focused more on romance than it did action. But i wasn't disappointed by the authors efforts.
I'm not a country music fanatic, so a lot of the scene setting in the book was beyond me to a certain extent. I was however already aware that country music is big in the south of America and those states can be fairly conservative. As such i was pleased to see that even with a more romantic genre, Nyx still doesn't turn away from writing about the less savoury aspects of life.
Queue a whole host of interesting topics (homophobia, sexism, racism, gender identities, abuse, coming out, ambitions etc) woven into this love story from beginning to end.
Ultimately, i enjoyed reading this book and i was pleased to find that this story offered something more to get your teeth into other than girl meets girls, falls in love, the end!
The only thing left mulling over in my mind was whether i liked the ending. I'm still note sure if i wanted Louie to tell Heather to go sling her hook or if Heather did indeed deserve a second chance?!? Guess i'll just have to read it again to decide that one!
