A Quickie with Eve Langlais (interview that is) Ko.These two characters touched me and they are beautifully written. It doesn’t seem like it would work but it does! There is the option to read both POVs on the same timeline, but you will lose some of the emotional and disconcerting impact of the story that gives the reader a better understanding of what the characters are dealing with. Eli’s side of the story starts in the past on June 2 into the present, Calden’s is told from the present back to the past when he got sick on June 2. The chapters alternate between Calden and Eli in first person POV, but the time line of the events aren’t the same.
The most interesting element of the book and what makes it so unique is the way it was written. I think this story is set in her “The Demon’s Age” series world and people live in a post-apocalyptic world where demons are trying to destroy the human race. There are mentions of a complicated history for these two but it doesn’t go into that. A few other characters float in and out but they are peripheral. It is hyper focused on the two men, their relationship and dealing with Calden’s medical condition. There are two things that make this story stick out from the romance crowd. There are a few sex scenes that can easily be skipped if you prefer not to read that. Now I know a lot of people don’t care for that, but this story is about so much more. The books we love are always the hardest to review. I’ve put off writing this review because I was quite sure how to do it.
" Anterograde amnesia is a loss of the ability to create new memories after the event that caused the amnesia, leading to a partial or complete inability to recall the recent past, while long-term memories from before the event remain intact." - wikipedia
