Reading on the beach ðŸï¸ #sandiegosummer
Zabé Ellor‘s debut novel mixes fantasy and SF with LGBTQ+ characters and erotic romance to dull effect. There are too many ideas for the storyline to be coherent or gripping and the self-pitying Koré swerves between seeing sex work as a salvation and as something done by broken people. Twists are telegraphed far too early, the antagonists are caricatures and I simply didn‘t get what Ria or Faziz see in Koré beyond the physical.
