Wajahat Ali wajahat1981 — I can't say I loved this book, although I wanted to. I love Maria Snyder's Study series and I love dystopian science fiction. To me this seemed like a match made in heaven. It was good. Just not great. I really liked the main character. Trella as likeable and her reactions to things were realistic. She wasn't a giddy little girl who swooned at the slightest thing like so many YA heroines these days. And I liked Cog and Riley quite a bit too. The chemistry between Trella and the two men was nice. And I loved that it wasn't a love triangle in any way. Just a good, lifelong friend and new friend who may have potential for more. That was definitely more like real life, despite the dystopian setting. And there was a couple of twists that I enjoyed - both where Outside really was and the cliffhanger ending. I didn't expect either. So while this wasn't my favorite book by Snyder, it was definitely worth 3.5 stars. And I plan on reading Outside In as soon as I can.

Francisco Laurel franlaurel — 3.5 stars http://threedollarbillreviews.com/201... Despite his name, Jamie Bliss has had a horribly cruel start to his life. Abandoned by his parents, he ended up in foster care where his foster father repeatedly sexually abused him. Not knowing any better, he later fell into a string of relationships with men who are physically abusive or use him to satisfy their own needs, giving nothing in return. He has no concept of what love is or how a truly giving relationship works. Love Quest is a gritty story about a young man's journey to discovering himself and learning what it means to love and be loved. It begins with disturbing and graphic details of what Jamie is forced to endure at a very young age. Those details are heartbreaking and it's easy to see the scars left on Jamie as a result. It's the second half of the story that really shines, as Jamie fights with everything in his being to reinvent himself, to overcome what he's been through, to prove he is better than the whore he's been treated as all his life. Meeting Evan and Frederick marks the beginning of his retaking control over his own life, and the introduction to Jack. The relationship between Jamie and Jack isn’t easy, and they encounter a few stumbling blocks along the way, but I enjoyed watching them get to know one another and try to overcome Jamie's past. On the surface, the story may not appear to be a romance. However, if you look closely, it's easy to see that this story at its core has an epic element, a quest for real love and caring. Jamie, in the role of the young knight, suffers greatly and has obstacles to overcome, but at the end of his journey is both his prince, and more importantly, himself. It takes some time to really become entrenched in the story, and much of this for me was based on the choice of first-person present. The story is very much told from inside Jamie's head, with additional commentary from his own internal thoughts. It's a fitting choice considering the path the story takes, but as an uncommon choice it does take a bit to embrace. There were a few times where the story went into a bit more detail than was really needed or it felt like a bit of a stretch for Jamie to know the knowledge being shared. Luckily this only happened a few times and wasn't too distracting. This is not a flowery story in any way, and the sex scenes, whether erotic or tales of Jamie being abused, don't mince words and go straight for the gut. My guess is that some readers might have trouble with these descriptions, but the key is that it's raw and real. The underlying beauty is that as Jamie's understanding of himself changes, so does the language and approach of the sex scenes. Overall this is a well-written story with a gradual arc that follows Jamie's story as he rediscovers himself and his capacity to love. If you enjoy stories that are on the rough and real side, but still have an element of romance involved, you will likely enjoy this read as I did.
