such a sweet cozy mm romance. small town wyoming, a farm boy and a city boy. slow burn and plenty of fluffy moments. the yearning, realization, fear. coming to terms with being queer. i just want them to be happy together

speechless. this might be one of my favorite reads. southern gothic horror with an supernatural/psychological twist. i can only describe the relationship as toxic yaoi with anton chigurh. EUGENE IS A SICK LITTLE FREAK!! the ending was devastating. themes of religious trauma and childhood abuse. the reveal was tragic. everything i could want in a book

slow at first but i loved the ending. alot of the themes really resonated with me. the prose wasn't for me but sometimes it really hit, both heartbroken, fond, and sickened

i loved this one so much, the characters, the emotional moments really got me. like. why am i feeling this. blown away. sentient machines in a western. with religious undertones. and written by a wonderful queer author!! bro
"Whatever god bestowed a soul to you, Gabriel, so, too, have They bestowed a soul to me."

i enjoyed the character so much... just some outdated things but for a 70s novel very ahead of its time. looks like queer authors have been paying service to making almost every character gay since the beginning LMAO
slow-paced
written by a prof emeritus at my uni. physics was fun, but a white male author writing a black woman physicist... it wasnt well researched enough in that respect and a bit out of touch due to this pervading color blind attitude. and some yikes comments about race and gender. but the nods to uci geography were fun i guess
