Review:
When asked to review this book I was generally unsure what to expect but I was definitely intrigued to say the least. The fact that this would be a comedy left me eager to get stuck in because who doesn’t like a good comedy? Hot Love Inferno is the second book in the Prophecy Allocation Series, I didn’t read the first one but was able to read on despite due to the book being a stand alone.
Now I have finished Hot Love Inferno, I am generally finding the words to sum up this crazy, odd book. This read has got to be one of the most bizarre, random and weirdest book I have ever experienced in my reading life.
After finishing chapter one I was left feeling puzzled and not quite sure about what I had just read or how the story would develop. At the same time I loved the authors laid back tone and light heartedness that he maintained throughout.
The book was also very fast paced and as a result of this I was able to read the book in one sitting. Humour was used throughout the book and did a fantastic job at keeping the tone light during the few serious moments there was.
The footnotes were one of my favourite things about this book. They were used to translate the British Slang used, which were brilliant and funny may I add. These footnotes also definitely opened my eyes to how weird us Brits actually are. As for the British Slang, I appreciated the clever use of it and was able to relate to some of the phrases used as I often use this slang myself.
All the characters in Hot Love Inferno were definitely unique and slightly abnormal. I don’t feel I was particularly able to connect with them, but this was probably a good job and my advice for future readers is not to let yourself attach to any of them.
I generally can’t make my mind up about this book and how I feel about it. It has been a long time since a book has left me sitting on the fence. Despite not knowing what to think, I still found myself storming through the book. Despite my lack of connection to the book, I really enjoyed and appreciated the author’s wittiness and it’s evident he is a very talented writer with a fantastic sense of humour. I generally think this book would be a suitable read for any one out there who enjoys the adult humour and random story lines of programmes such as The Simpsons and Family Guy.
