I really have a love / hate relationship with Gregory Ashe. First, it's really hard to read his books because he seems to take the pulse of the ugly in this country with these books and really expose it (I'm reading the second in this series now and I can't say that it's feeling good). Second, because he writes emotion that is deeper than angst like a gift-a painful, microscopic gift.
So while Gregory Ashe will keep me reading, he does it while continually shredding me, so yeah, I also hate his books. But he also showcases this incredible level of detail in setting, plot, and character, so much it's hard not to identify and love them a little like they love each other and that is a little bit of a witchy move. Anyway, there's a reason I took a year (?) long break from Hazard and Somers--it was a good decision.

[4.7] Gregory Ashe has me riding a violent, almost nauseating rollercoaster of emotions, and yet as is my masochistic nature, I don’t want off.

The depiction of Hazard & Somers’ internal and interpersonal struggles here was brilliant and the visceral pain could be felt from the words on the page like knife on skin.

These insecure buffoons continue to miss on the communication front but it was done in a way that had me hooked on their interactions, and seeing genuine progress and them coming out stronger because of it? Hits the spot, my friends ( )

Still, a Union that can only be maintained by swords and bayonets, and in which strife and civil war are to take place of brotherly love and kindness, has no charm for me.
