“A Heart-Breaking, Emotional, and, Heart-Warming Read”
An absolutely breathtaking, heartbreaking, and, incredibly mysterious new read has just blown-me-away and speaking for this reader, it’s overall magnanimous storyline is to be considered as other-wordly with it’s stunning plot and super characters. And that twist? *Pfft* Hold on to your kindles ‘cuz they’re gonna be flying as a result of that thunderbolt of a scream that will undoubtedly make it’s presence known. This story was an absolutely incredible read..
Release, by A.E. Ryecart, is an upcoming release that should not be missed. By any reader. It’s one of those stories that has everything and more and is to be considered as a Top Read 2019. It’s plot, with all of the thought-provoking moments are unique and rare to come across for this reader. It’s storyline is a magnificent and a stunningly captivating one in which the writing has this extraordinary ability to be multi-layered, with it’s inclusion of actual symbolism as well as a beautiful style of writing as a whole. With the presence of plentiful British vernaculars, the uniquely cohesive structure goes far beyond a simple plot. Through dark, deeply emotional, triggered, tragic moments of abuse, betrayal, and, gut-wrenching desperation, the writing quickly seems to smooth things accordingly with the presence of it’s gorgeously descriptive writing. There were numerous times when the tears had flowed for the main characters of this story. Sean and Laurie are amazingly wonderful souls who despite having contained different backgrounds, are very much the same..and this broke my heart..
Sean and Laurie..oh how I adore them and need to squeeze them so tightly, as their tragic past, even though is very similar, both men found extremely different ways to actually survive. As both seek that newly formed desire for more out of life, each struggles differently, and yet equally crawls their way through dark and desperate events, towards their new brightly lit lives filled with an over-flowing amount of happiness that each has greatly earned. Omg. I adore Sean and Laurie to bits..
While it was, at times, very difficult to read, part of which helped were the incredibly attentive, dedicated, and loving secondary characters, many of whom made squeal-worthy cameos from previous books. Their own stories are calling out to me already.
Release, with it’s mind-blowingly amazing title, is a raw and brutal story with shocking events both on and off the page. With the addition of such wonderful secondary characters, a slow but consistent heat and ever present chemistry, and, a few giggle-snort moments, I found myself in varied bouts of emotions as the characters found their way towards their light and never-ending happiness. It was one of those reads that had this storyline that languidly wrapped itself right around this reader with it’s beautifully written and emotional moments and it’s amazing characters. While there were a few areas to the plot that I had wished for further development, and there had existed a smattering of typos, Release, by A.E. Ryecart, will be one of those rare Five-Star Reviews for this reader and is highly recommended for all to read..I absolutely loved it..:)
