simonlorden 's review for:
Snowball Earth
by Max Fink, Andrea Lisowski
This book was December's Sapphic Book Club read hosted by @sapphicliterature.

Actual rating: 2.5 stars
Honestly, I hate leaving negative reviews but I don't have much positive to say about this book. I found the writing and the plot uninteresting with a lot of unnecessary details, and the stalker from the description was an absolutely-not-scary cliché at best and an ableist cliché at worst.
edit: I forgot to mention some annoying writing quirks, like constantly switching POVs and using four different epithets for the same person on one page. Nothing huge, but I feel like this book could have used a more thorough editing.
That being said, if you like slowburn f/f romance/crime stories with rockstars and bodyguards, you might like it better than I did.
Trigger warning for casual drug use (though not addiction), panic attacks, mention of abusive relationships, stalking... some ableist remarks regarding the stalker.
