I like stuff with romantic elements and angst, usually YA, fantasy, paranormal/urban fantasy or variations thereof. Usually wrinkles nose at sci-fi due to unlikely tech. Straight girl who likes boys that like boys!

Wave Goodbye to Charlie: it is not about what you think it is about

Wave Goodbye to Charlie - Eric Arvin

Huh. That was just.... odd. There are ghosts, spirits, a bit of witch craft, a murder or two, some old & nasty evil, a strange cast of characters, beautiful friendships, love, family and very pretty writing. Oh, and a walking house.

 

It wasn't at all what I thought it would be. It's tagged as fantasy m/m romance, but it isn't a romance. At all. Not sure I would call it fantasy either. And sure, the side-kick couple (if you can call them that; they are pretty essential to the story after all) are gay, but that in itself is rather irrelevant.

 

I liked it, though. Once I moved past the fact that it wasn't about what I thought it was about.
