Gather The Wild Hunt Written By Stephanie Rabig Textbook
had high hopes for this short story based on the blurb and I am pleased to say it did not disappoint Short and sweet this is aword short story about Peter and his family stretching between the present day andwhen his Aunt Jackie first fell for a trans woman called Chloe This book doesn't really give into any of the LGBT tropes I can think of It's incredibly put together and just about as long as it needs to be which is a rarity for stories this short Not a single word is wasted hereDespite it's beginnings this book really isn't a niche mm romance and I feel as though it's possible the book will lose some in the ratings because of that alone However the friendship between Peter and Carlos is well worth it and the representation of Chloe in the descriptions and the relationship between her and Jackie is just perfectly done Book The Wild HuntAuthor Stephanie RabigStar rating No of PagesCover Perfect for the storyPOVrd person dual POVWould I read it again YesGenre LGBT Paranormal Contemporary COPY RECEIVED THROUGH NETGALLEY This was one brilliant little paranormal story that packed a punch in so few pagesAt the beginning I couldn't believe how much of
an ass Ethan was to dump Carlos by ghosting him and allowing him to find out after days of panicking and concern That's so low and despicable I hated him right off the bat and loved Carlos for his concern for being so innocently oblivious and naïve enough not to really understand what was happeningPeter was interesting but also a little mysterious We got to see a lot of Carlos' inner character in those first few pages but Peter had the opposite life a huge family to support him where Carlos was a bit of a loner and family history that kind of overrode his own personality for a while for understandable reasons It was nice to see a little of him as his character grew gradually throughout the storyI loved the addition of flashbacks for Peter's aunt There were just a few but they were well placed and with just enough information to offer us a glimpse into the past and the effect those events had on the present The way that it all unravelled was so well planned and plotted that I never felt shocked or surprised by the twists and turns of the storyOverall it's a really cute story with intrigue magic and faith It's a great exploration about healing loss friendship and the discrimination against LGBT people in the's I loved how it unfolded slowly yet without dragging the story and still managed to fit so much story into so few pagesBravo I'll be reading of Stephanie Rabig from now onFavourite uote“Carlos had left the back passenger door open in case he needed to call out a warning and he waved his arms calling for them to hurry feeling for all the world like Ian Malcolm lying in the back of the Jeep and hollering helplessly as the T rex bore down on them” Peter is anticipating a peaceful ride up to his Aunt Jackie's house for Christmas Carlos is anticipating some time at his parents' to recover from an unexpected breakup But when he's nearly at his aunt's cabin Peter hits a deer Carlos who was driving behind him stops to help and both men are floored as the injured deer morphs into a woman I love mythology and fairy tales those form the basis of aboutof my current projects Pacific Rim Firefly The Avengers tea Welcome to Night Vale and chocolate Recently I've had several short stories and soon novels published by the wonderful Less Than Three PressThough I write mostly fantasy and romance my first and main love will always be horror A few years ago my grade scho.
