Mild HomophobiaSuggestive Themes
A clever and steamy queer romantic comedy about taking chances and accepting love – with all its complications. Perfect for fans of Alexandria Bellefleur, Casey McQuiston and Rosie Danan. Delilah Green swore she would never go back to Bright Falls – nothing is there for her except memories of a lonely childhood. Her life now is in New York, with her photography career finally gaining steam and her bed never empty. Sure, it’s a different woman every night, but that’s just fine with her. When Delilah’s estranged stepsister pressures her into photographing her wedding with a guilt trip and a large check, Delilah finds herself back in Bright Falls once more. She plans to breeze in and out, but then she sees Claire Sutherland, one of Astrid’s stuck-up besties, and decides that maybe there’s some fun (and a little retribution) to be had, after all.

Really enjoyed: Delilah Green Doesn’t Care

I went into Delilah Green Doesn’t Care with pretty normal expectations and it surprised me. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. The ending resolves fast compared to how much it builds up. Overall, I’d recommend it to the right reader.

Delilah Green Doesn’t Care is the kind of book that hooks you early if you like its vibe. The atmosphere is the standout — it’s easy to sink into. The middle drags and repeats the same tension a bit too long. Not perfect, but it did enough to keep me turning pages.
