Blue is just trying to get through the long weekend when he strikes up a conversation with Tristan, the straight brother of the groom. When you read all of her books back-to-back, they start to get a bit monotonous and samey-samey, which means that even while writing these reviews I struggled to remember which plot points went with which book…and I read these last month.īorrowing Blue (3/5 stars)- Blue Marian is trapped at a vineyard for his sister’s wedding with his recent ex-boyfriend and his ex’s new partner. Her characters are also all ridiculous, fall in love immediately, and then make huge life-changing decisions after about a week of being together. Her characters are all good people, trying to do the right thing, and they all find a happily ever after. I think her books are like Peeps- really sugary, not exactly good, but comforting and easy to eat, even if they leave you feeling unhealthy and slightly sick. Which might make you think that I enjoy her writing, but that’s not exactly true. In addition to the nine Marian siblings, there is also a trio of bawdy older women, Aunt Tilly, Granny, and Iris, who generally provide comic relief by saying sexual things, which is of course hilarious because they’re old and everyone knows old people don’t have sex drives or think about sex.Īs I said above, I’ve read everything that Lucy Lennox has written. The first six books in the series focus on the six brothers, while the seventh book features the entire family trying to set up a new friend that they meet.

When their sons came out, the Marian parents began volunteering at a gay youth shelter and adopted three of the young teens living there, bringing their family total to nine children, six of whom are gay men. The Marians have six biological children, three of whom are gay. It centers on the Marian family from San Francisco. I’ve read them all, and rather than review them individually I decided to just review each series. She has also collaborated with other authors on several standalone series. She has written two series, Made Marian and Forever Wilde, about two huge families filled with gay men.

Lucy Lennox is a prolific ebook author of m/m gay romance.
