A review by vault_g1rl
Southernmost by Silas House

3.0

I thought it started out strong, but I wish it had touched on the different elements of the book a little bit more. It seemed like it touched religion, LGBTQ issues, custody battles, and strained family relationships on the surface level, but I would've preferred things to go deeper, especially regarding LGBTQ issues in the deeply religious south. Asher seemed to have already changed by the time we're introduced to him, but it would've been nice to see more of that change happening, along with the divide between him and Lydia growing. Otherwise, his actions seem to escalate a little too quickly to seem realistic to me.
