I’m not sure what “Sloe Ride” title of Rhys Ford’s new book is referring to, but that’s a small quibble for an otherwise generally enjoyable book. It’s number 4 in The Sinners series, and while I was able to follow it without too much effort, I think I would’ve enjoyed it more if I’d read books 1-3 first.

They have terrible titles, but that isn’t the fault of the books. Rhys Ford, please, for the love of a good book, ask if you need help with titles. You can leave a comment below or find me on Twitter. Patty: Yeah, the first one was OK: Fish and Ghosts, a play on fish and guests and the whole three […]
