A Token's Worth by S.A. Parker
5.0
This was my first time dipping my pinky toe into the whole "dark" subgenre of RH. I didn't know if it was going to be too much for me, if I could handle it, or if it would straight up scare the bejizzles out of me and make me run and hide.
Happy to report that after the first chapter, I straight up canon balled into this bitch.
IT. IS. SO. GOOD!
I loved the world building, character building, the inner vagina conversations (like, whoa don't get me started on THAT hilarity!) I loved it all. Except that it ended and I couldn't read more of the story.
This is the kind of story that doesn't have you reading the first half of the book to build up the character history or the world around them. It doesn't hold your hand and guide you through the inner workings of the characters lives.
It shoves you into their lives from the beginning. I don't like being pushed, I mean, who does? But in this case..push me again S.A. Parker! Push me agaaaaaaaaaaaaaain!
Now with saying that, I also need you to know that you're not going to be thrown into their lives with a whole "what the eff is going on? I don't know what's going on!" the author does a phenomenal job of giving you just the right amount of background information without drowning you in it.
Freaking high five to her because it's not easy to do that! From my reading experience anyway!
SO! If you are 1) new to the whole "dark" subgenre of RH (or any main genre), give this a try. PLEASE! 2) if you want to laugh and squirm in delight, give this a try. PLEASE! 3) ....just freaking read this okay?
