Reviews of The Angela Suite by Anthony C Green
I read this book in one sitting. I was sucked into it right away because it felt real and gritty and authentic. The characters are memorable and unique, and there are a lot of details into the scenes that makes it seem like you are really there and in the characters’ heads. One thing I didn’t like was that there were several punctuation and grammar issues. But I didn’t want to put the story down until I finished because it was so good and really different from anything else I’d read lately. So if you enjoy an ‘adults only’ read about the darker, more twisted side of life, then this is a great book for you to try.
I am of mixed feelings of this novel, “The Angela Suite” by Anthony Green. On one hand, I found that I really, really enjoyed the story and was completely invested in the characters and their outcomes (especially Angela, whom I found very interesting). I didn’t want to put it down, and thought the variety and salaciousness of the illicit sex scenes were hot. But on the other hand, this book is in dire need of an editor or proofreader as I noticed several things that prevented me from completely enjoying the book to its maximum potential. Overall the story was different and I thought that Mr. Green has a great “voice” and potential as an author. The book’s sad twist at the end shows he’s not afraid to make it realistic and avoids the ‘cookie-cutter’ trappings of many books today. With the help of a good editor, this book will make for a great read.
"The Angela Suite” by Anthony Green is one sexy and dark drama novel! But it’s also funny, sad, and feels genuine. But this is the kind of book I like to read because I’m not sure I’d actually want to experience these types of relationships or encounters myself, but they sure are juicy to read about! Terence and Angela were patients at a rehab center and they run into each other again several months later. She’s an alcoholic lesbian but they embark on an unexpected relationship that ends… well, you just have to see for yourself how it ends. From blindfolds to ‘tapes’, this duo pushes the boundaries and there is a price to pay. A fascinating book, one that isn’t without its issues but still a captivating read. Recommended for mature readers only.
For me, this book was an unexpected surprise. At first I thought it started off a bit slow, with perhaps too much time spent on the details of the mundane. But by the end I was thoroughly caught up in Terence’s (Terry’s) whirlwind world of sex, addiction, music, and self-destructive behavior. This book is billed as an erotica novel, but there is really so much more to it than just sex. And there is plenty of that, and not your normal, run-of the-mill stuff either. It is graphic, shocking at times, heartbreaking, and ultimately hopeful. One of the more interesting books I’ve encountered and hard to really pigeonhole into a specific category. Recommended for adults who want something different to read and who don’t offend/shock easily.
