A review by booksdogsandcoffee
Queerly Beloved by Susie Dumond
Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.
Thank you netgalley for the arc!
Dnfed at 30% for personal reasons. I was triggered by the outting scene and religious bigotry in this book. I think the story is one that needs to be told, I just couldn’t get back into the story after that scene.
Amelia, who goes by Amy to everyone else except her very religious conservative white boss hides who she really is. She is the queer Robin Hood of the Daily Bread bakery, getting paid by the conservative Christian’s who have no idea she is actually a very liberal queer person. By day she works at Daily Bread and by night at Ruby Reds, where she can fully be herself.
Charley, new in town who is researching earthquakes and framing, meets Amy by chance when she walks into the bakery that Amy works at.
Cw/tw
Christianity centered, far right politic endorser owns the bakery.
Casual racism stated, but not called out.
Closeted religious beliefs and sexuality to appease Christian’s
Religious Bigotry
There are probably more but didn’t get pst 30%
