Queer Reviews: Nicky James, "The One That Got Away".

CW: explicit sexual content, mentions of kidnapping and child sex trafficking, stalking, paranoia, severe anxiety and panic disorder, OCD, dissociative episodes, PTSD, mildly graphic violence

Plot: Charlie Falkingham is convinced someone is after him. There are signs. There are clues, but no one believes him. After living through a childhood horror, Charlie suffers from a severe paranoia disorder, among many things, and the Hamilton Police have labeled him The Boy Who Cried Wolf. When the only person on the force who ever listened to Charlie’s concerns retires, who can Charlie reach out to for help? Arrogant and young, Officer Takoda Dyani has a chip on his shoulder a mile wide. He’s rude and brash and doesn’t play well with others. He has more enemies than friends, and he doesn’t care. When his senior officer assigns him to be Charlie’s consultant, Takoda knows it will end badly. He doesn’t have time to coddle a prissy rich boy. However, if he can’t calm Charlie’s paranoid delusions and act civil for once, he’ll lose his job. But are they delusions? The longer he knows Charlie, the more Takoda realizes, something isn’t right. Is someone stalking Charlie, or is Takoda getting too wrapped up in Charlie’s fragile world?

9/10 on the Rainbow Scale™ 🌈: HOLY SMOKES THIS BOOK MESSED ME UP IN THE BEST WAY. I'm a huge horror/suspense fan and there's nothing more satisfying to me than a really good mystery to unravel. The pacing in this novel is insane, I was 100% feeling the anxiety and terror Charlie was experiencing, especially because, as a maldaptive daydreamer and borderline agoraphobic introvert myself, I heavily identified with his character. The romance in this is truly adorable and a nice bonus, but the mystery and the suspense are the best part. A word of caution: this is not for the faint of heart. The topics explored in this novel are mature and fairly dark, so they might trigger someone's anxiety. If you personally have no problem reading mature content, then I totally reccommend this.

Love Me Whole

By: Nicky James

I was hoping to find more novels with Neurodivirgent protagonists.

This one is apparently a gay love story with a protagonist who has DID.

Unfortunately, I know a lot of DID storys in media are highly offensive to those who actually have DID.

Has anyone with DID read/know about this? I was wondering if this is a book I should purchase or pass on? I wouldn't want to accidentally contribute to ableist media.

If you have DID please let me know if you think this book is worth supporting.

This my July wrap up.  I read 27 books last month mostly because of #thebookjunkietrials.

Like you can see I almost reach my goal that I fixed for this year (read 200 books like last year) … but apparently I will for sure read more than that until the end of the year … which just the though of that drives me crazy!  Me who never read more than like what 10 books or less in 30 years or so, then read 200 books in one year last year while this year I can not only read more than 20 books in a month but I can also read more than 200 books in a year … MINDBLOWING for sure!!! I’m proud of me!

Last month I also put another personal challenge on me for my next monthly TBR: I will read each month at least 2 thrillers.

Since I’m a little girl I was always attracted by the thriller world.  I always watched TV thrillers series from “Starsky & Hutch” to “Monk” (to name a few).  I even wanted to work in this world first as detective (like all those characters of course) and then when I started to study in a law school, I was very excited to study criminlogy.  Unfortunately university was never my forte and I ended up being graduated in P.R. but the passion is still there … just like my passion for psychology who was also a subject that I wanted to study at the university … I also like to whatch documentary about criminal cases to understand the mind of those monsters.

That is why I thought that my “fear” for reading a thriller book was silly of me since it’s a world that intrigued me since I’m a little girl … and so far so good!  I loved the 2 thrillers that I read in July, I already planned the 2 thrillers for this month (August) and bought some new ones!

Anyway let’s back to my July wrap up:

- For the #bookjunkietrials, I not only did the first 5 challenges for my team (#Scribes) but also read a book for the challenges of each team:

1. Dwarf Mount: “Fumbled Hearts” by Meagan Brandy: 4 stars

2. Apothecary Towers: “Bad Saint” by Monica James: 4 stars

3. The Great Library: “Finley” by Ella Frank: 4 stars (more a 3.5)

4. The Drowning Deep: “A Thousand Pieces Of You” by Claudia Gray: 4 stars

5. The Bookie Grail: “Stardust” by Neil Gaiman: 3 stars

6. Orc Grove “Captive In The Dark” by C.J. Roberts: 4 stars

7. Ol’ Pirate Cove: “Bane” by L.J. Shen: 4.5 stars

8. Glimmer: “One Little Lie” by Whitney Barbetti: 3.5 stars

9. Draconic Isle: “Obsidian” by Kimberly Loth: 3 stars

10. The Eleven Guard: “Off Base” by Annabeth Albert: 4 stars

11. On The Hallow Isle: “Scavengers” by Yolanda Olson: 4 stars

12. Empty Barrel Inn: “The Bourbon Kings” by J.R. Ward: 4 stars

13. Giant Squid: “Requiem & Reverie” by Keri Lake : 5 stars (more a 4.5)

14. Crimson Peaks: “Devil’s Kiss” by Ella Frank: 5 stars

15. Queendom Stone: “Cheeky Royal” by Nana Malone: 4 stars

16. The Forgotten Forests: “#Player” by Cambria Hebert: 4 stars

17. The Weeping Falls: “Until You” by Penelope Douglas”: 5 stars

In July I also read for my last library and last #romanceopoly challenge: “Enthralled” by Giana Darling.  I was not a huge fan of her book “Lessons In Corruption” but I gave another try with “Enthralled” … and I fell in love with it!  I gave it 5 stars and I’m so impatient to read the second book!

I also read those books:

- “Sinfully Mine” by Nicky James: 4 stars Yes it’s a very tabboo romance but the author make a really good job to explain how and why these 2 young men, these 2 brothers started to have more deep feelings toward each others.  This romance is much more complex than it seems to be but I can understand that for some us, this romance is waaaaayyy more than tabboo and forbidden ...

- “Filty Rich Boys” by C.M. Stunich: 4 stars

- “Two Can Keep A Secret” by Karen McManus: 4 stars

- “Boy Shattered” by Eli Easton: 4 stars

- “Say You’re Sorry” by Melinda Leigh: 4 stars

- “Cruel Intentions” by Siobhan Davis: 4 stars

- “Bad, Bad Blue Blood” by C.M. Stunich: 3.5 stars

- “#Selfie” by Cambria Hebert: 5 stars

- “Breaking Beth” by Jennifer Bene: 3 stars

It's hard to let go of the demons inside; they were holding you when no one else would.
