7/6/2023 0 Comments Summer skin by kirsty eagarYes, it's a steamy romance - but there are a million of those, right? And yes, it's got a great feminist message that shows women enjoying sex and asserting their right to choose - but other books are also doing that these days, right? I really want to portray what's so damn great about this book and why it stands out. Jess Gordon and her friends are badass, funny and lovable, as they try to navigate the seas of college life - alcohol, hook-ups and assholes - and get revenge on the jocks from the old school, sexist Knights College. There are so many great female characters in this book, who swear, masturbate, and offer no apologies, but are also very sensitively portrayed. It's a completely different beast from the heart-wrenching Raw Blue - her titles seem to be very telling the other book was raw and blue, this one is about heat and sweat and (you guessed it) summer skin. It's been four years since Eagar has released a novel and now she comes rushing back onto the playing field with this very different, very feisty novel about revenge and female sexuality. This is one of the sexiest romances I've ever read, easily the sexiest New Adult romance I've ever read.
