A review by senholto
Sin City Vows by Zuri Day
5.0
This book is complete trash.
But I loved it. The ridiculous names, the absurd conversations, the hundreds of sex scenes, the abrupt resolutions that in the normal world would take years to achieve, I love it all. It's derivative and regurgitates many tired tropes, enjoyable for all that.
Trigger-warning: There's an insane amount of sexual objectification in this book and many others in the Mills & Boon series. Which was kind of refreshing. At the time of reviewing, there is much shaming of the act of objectifying the physical characteristics of a person and while much literature today (particularly the mainstream hits, excluding 50 Shades of Gray), there will always be a place for objectification of the male and female figure in literature.
I loved the Michael Jackson reference of MJ Live Concert. But this puzzled me somewhat as the Cirque concert in Las Vegas is entitled MJ One.
And finally, there are brief references to world geography, which is not something I've seen before in these novels and quite refreshing.
Overall, great book for all its flaws.
