Too slow for me, too much dry dialogue. ( ) This was probably one of the most dialogue-heavy books I’ve read in some time, and that really surprised me. There was a lot of talking, and a serious lack of action to balance it out. By 30%, I was getting fed up with the never-ending conversations about totally inconsequential things, and it almost put me to sleep. I’m glad I kept going, though, because it got better. I really liked Rus. He was the main reason I was so determined not to toss this book, and even though his half of the story wasn’t perfect, it was much more enjoyable than than the first part. Adares was okay, I guess, but I didn’t have many strong feelings about him one way or another, so that may be the reason. The way their relationship was developed lacked credibility, in my opinion. While such quick attraction is believable, acting on it almost instantly in these circumstances, when just a couple of hours ago their people were killing each other?? I’m not sure I liked this author’s writing style. What really bothered me was definitely the pacing - most of the time the story outright dragged, then something happened and I got sucked right back in, only for the story to move at a snail’s pace again. All in all, I liked it, even though I'd expected more - an epic enemies to lovers story, maybe - than the rather tame insta-love I got. I feel like the author made light of some things, skirting around the interesting parts and focusing on unimportant details instead. Every time I open this book I address a prayer to God, asking him to forgive me for my immoral acts, each time I ask him to help me carry on with this nauseous book, and I keep latching to the vain hope of making it to the end of the overabundant paragraphs chock full of dialogues which make up roughly 1/3 of the book. Lately I've decided to change my tune, and I still spare a pray for the almighty "Lord, Lord, I'm begging you, don't put me through this sort of torture ever again.". nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
They met on a battlefield and saved each other's lives. It's not the way enemies-to-lovers usually works. Adares comes from a civilization of democracy and indoor plumbing. Rus belongs to a tribe of tattooed, semi-nomadic horse-breeders. They meet in the aftermath of battle, when Rus saves Adares's life, and Adares returns the favour. As they shelter in an abandoned temple, a friendship neither of them could have imagined grows into a mutual attraction. But Rus, whose people abhor love between men, is bound by an oath of celibacy, and Adares has a secret of his own that he cannot share. With their people poised for a long and bitter conflict, it seems too much to hope that these two men could turn their fleeting happiness into something lasting. Unless, of course, the relationship between them changes the course of their people's history altogether. Something Human is a standalone m/m romance set in an imaginary ancient world, about two people bridging a cultural divide with the help of great sex, pedantic discussions about the gods, and bad jokes about standing stones.
