Well, this was a bit fucked-up. Very creepy and nicely done! The writing was incredible. I quite immersed in the skin of the character, high on drugs and unsure how to perceive reality, what to take for granted and what to examine more closely. I couldn't be sure if Angel was just your average indep...
Me and my rentboy obsession...and in New Orleans too? Forgone conclusion!
This was an interesting little story. I love New Orleans, and though the story was set there, the New Orleans flavor was only mild, I'd say. There was a little Voodoo/Santeria in it, but also very light. In the end it was not really a romance more of a morality play. I didn't really understand w...
3,5 starsI have a hard time rating this book because I honestly have no idea if I liked it or not. I’m not saying I don’t know if it was good because it was.

But it wasn't that kind of story. It actually seemed more like a traditional coming-of-age type story than anything.I am intr...
With Cruce de Caminos or Crossroads we get another tight, well written effort from this fearless writing duo. Bealleau and Vane once again, push us beyond the ordinary in this genre. I don't know that I would call this a horror story but it is dark and gritty, dealing with drug addiction and prosti...
