A review by sarful
Endless Stretch of Blue by Riley Hart
2.0
This book grabbed me right away, with these two men dealing with grief and not even very well. They see in each other a mirror of themselves and find peace with each other they’d never thought possible. They fall in love pretty quickly and both grapple with a new identity as they discover each other more intimately. They both had identified as straight, and while they can’t explain their feelings, they refuse to deny this happiness. I adored how this relationship grew organically and that they helped each other grow and be more honest with themselves. Plus, hot.
The story itself was really interesting and beautiful. However, about halfway through it kind of slowed down for me and it felt a bit redundant and repetitive after awhile. I understand they’re surprised with how deep they love a man, and had never entertained the notion, but it felt repeated too often.
This review is also maybe a little unfair as I’m not a fan of this kind of simple and straightforward kind of writing. It felt a bit too wordy. Which isn’t to say the writing is bad in the least, because it isn’t, it’s just not my favorite kind of writing. I don’t even know if this makes sense but, but there you go.
