Stake Sauce, Arc 1: The Secret Ingredient Is Love. No, Really by RoAnna Sylver
5.0
CW/TW: fire, gore, PTSD, crucifixion
You know that feeling when you finally finish a book and you just let our a breath and it's one of just poor joy? Yeah. That's me with this book. I absolutely adore it, okay.
I already knew from the get go that I was going to love this. I've only read two other RoAnna Sylver books but they brought me such happiness that I knew this one wouldn't disappoint me either. And I was, of course, correct.
I love everything about this book. I love the characters and the plot and just, everything. I love Jude with all my heart and I'm not going to list all the characters but just know that every single one of them is in my heart and I love them so much!
Also: Act Six (6) came to rip out my heart over and over and over again. Just everything about act six made me feel good. And the conversation between Jude and Pixie about Jude's sexuality makes me happy. AND again, I appreciate that we find that Jude is trans without having to deadname him. We stan.
P. S. You know, I had this feeling about this pairing in this book and I kept squinting at it each time it was mentioned (or there were interactions between the pair) and I thought it was a possibility (and this being a RoAnna Sylver book, I knew it could happen), but wanting and hoping for it to happen and then actually having it confirmed are two different things and I need y'all to know that it was confirmed and my heart has seen heaven and it is beautiful.
“Hey, Jude.”
