Clementine wants a fresh start. Lou wants to save her bar. Steamy, sapphic, sweet!
This was a quick read. My first from this author I think. It was fine but bar culture isn’t really my thing and so I found myself a little… not quite caring as much about saving the bar etc. Rachel was just too brash and mean for me and never grew on me even in the end—hazing someone to getting that drunk, esp on the job, is just beyond cruel and immature—I didn’t really latch on to any of the characters or the dynamics all that much, but it was a sweet quick read.
This book is the light hearted gooey queer goodness one needs! Clementine is an absolute delight and Lou is just dreamy. I honestly had a smile on my face through reading it that just wouldn't go away (nor did I want it to). Another amazing job by Lucy Bexley!
A sapphic reinterpretation of Coyote Ugly? Yes, please.
I am falling evermore in love with Lucy Bexley's writing with each book I read. HOWL did not disappoint, giving me all the fun parts of Coyote Ugly (bar dancing! No water! Struggling artists!) plus a meddling grandma, and wall bangin'!
I will not there is a thread of sadness woven into this story, that is full countered by the present love and acceptance the characters have in each other and their future. Lou and her grandma made my heart so happy!! Lou's parents are truly missing out.
And Clem! I always enjoy reading about romance characters who struggle financially, who need to make things work. This is that sort of romance, including Lou's struggle to keep Boston's last historic gay bar alive.
And did I mention it is hot? It is really hot.
I checked this out on KU for #ReadingTheRainbow22 with But Do They Bang! I used it to fit the "friends" square.
