The Bright Lands by John Fram
3.0

Wowza. That was something. This book is 473 big ass pages long and I read it in like 5 days, so that’s saying something. But it was a LOT. There’s kidnapping, there’s football, there’s a lot of homophobia, there’s a monster of some sort.

It kept my interest and was a compelling read. But I think it could have been pared down a bit. I think it’d be a solid 4 star book if the paranormal stuff and 1/4 of the characters were removed.

Oh and one of the reviews quoted on the back of the book calls it “very sexy.” That is not true, and I’m a little concerned for the person who thinks it is.
