cheesepuppy 's review for:
Crystal's House of Queers
by Brooke Skipstone
emotional
hopeful
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Plot
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Do you want
- Sapphic love
- Plot with lots of spice/smut
- Found family
- New adult (18+)
- Multigenerational queers
- Autistic main character
Then read this book.
However, if you feel...
- It’s too soon to read about life during covid
- icky reading barely legal smut*
then this is not the book for you
Cuuuuuute story about baby sapphics fighting for space in the world while some are tangled up in family drama others are getting away from abuse.
*This is a new adult book, but the characters are still 18 and in the beginning of their senior year of high school. It almost feels like the “barely legal” category. Then again, this is meant for New Adults. So, maybe it’s perfect.
My favorite quote from this book reminds me a lot of my own life
I think the past should be like an old movie you’ve found hidden in a box. You remember it made you sad or happy or afraid but it’s old and there are much better movies to see now. Then you close the box and put it away. Pretty soon, you forget where you put the box and stop caring that you lost it
