The Hell You Say by Josh Lanyon

this was best book as far as mystery is concerned. i will say though adrien really does needs to stay out of police business. i like him and obviously root for him but the usually is in the wrong for acting like a cop.

anyway jake… i hate him. he hates himself sure got it but why drag adrien into his self hatred?

he assaulted him! like dude you are the one with a pregnant fiancé!!!! why are you mad at him??? you chased! you called him baby! you initiated sex! you jake! i know internalized homophobia can get just as aggressive as plain homophobia. i just don’t want the end goal guy to be… this!

i also hate the casually homophobic and transphobic language used here and previous books. i know it’s if it’s time but it’s still uncomfortable.
