stephsbooktalk 's review for:
My Policeman
by Bethan Roberts
Audiobook: Thank you to PRH Audio for the gifted copy of this book!
Of course I had to give this a read when it came out that my love Harry Styles was going to be starring in a movie based off the book.
I definitely didn't pay attention to the trailer or the movie and I don't read description so I truly went in this blind. I was surprised by some of the semantics of the relationships. I understand why Tom felt like he had to use Marion has a beard during this time in the 50s.
I wish this book was in 3 POVs instead of just Marion and Patrick. I think having Tom's POV would have been added value in the complexity of the story. Also if this would be re-recorded using the actor's narrations I would not oppose to hearing Harry's voice as Tom had there been his POV.
I did want a little more just not sure of what.
I enjoyed listening and wanted to see what would happen but I just needed more.
I am anxious to see how the text is translated to the screen.
Edit after seeing the movie: I thought the movie was done very well. I thought there was ample time of past and present and wasn't too much of one or the other. Everyone did a great job and my love just looks good in the 50s era.
We need more queer in entertainment as it has always been around whether society wants to admit it or not.
