tenshiwing07 's review for:
The Gentleman's Book of Vices
by Jess Everlee
It was fine, did not love it. Didn't like it, actually.
Going in, I expected to like Charlie less and Miles more. I usually love a character that is a writer.
Not this time. Miles was a jerk to everyone, particularly those trying to be his friends. I'm shocked he even had the one friend he did and shocked Charlie managed to fall for him. He was never nice to anyone that I can think of. Even when he was being nice, it was only marginal. He wasn't even grateful when people went above and beyond to try to help him.
Charlie was always called out for being sort of a cad but he was kind and cared about everyone. It was clear why he had so many friends (and Miles had one). I loved all of Charlie's friends, they were lovely and the stars.
Not a fan of how women were treated in the book either, honestly. Mainly Charlie's fiancee (Charlie was good to her, but mostly no one else was, and it got on my nerves.)
