it is hard to review a book when all you want to do is unhinged screaming
Blight is FINALLY HERE and I'm not gonna be normal about it.
Book two in The Sleep of Reason series, this book is what happens when right-wing governments stop dog-whistling about fascism and fully commit to the bit. Set in Canada, this book shows how menacing "peace, order, and good government" can be.
It's not all doom and gloom. Sure, there's "Cleaners" and "unencumberances", but in the depths of the fractured cells of the rebellion, the queers finally move past "twenty years of pining". Love is all we've got. Sure, electricity and food is swell, but turns out, the heart's need for love and friendship and connection outlasts the rising ocean, the falling parliament.
Plus, this book is funny, and turns out, you can survive (almost) anything with the application of sufficient quantities of dark humour.
Anyone who knows me knows that I'm fully obsessed with these characters, my "original" works are fanfic by another name since I've kidnapped like half of Rachel A Rosen's cast and consider my books an AU. With permission--I haven't even changed any names. So if you like my books, read this.
I know it's book two but I think it would work even if you hadn't read book one? Hard to be certain because obviously I POURED over book one like a holy text. If you dive into book two without book one, tell me how it goes?
I hate telling tumblerinas to buy a book because obviously everyone is broke or they wouldn't be here, they'd be on a real social media site. You can buy the book, obvs, but you can also apply for a free review copy here:
