Delilah Green Doesn't Care: A swoon-worthy, laugh-out-loud queer romcom

Product Information

It is a gorgeous sapphic romance, a celebration of found family and a beautiful exploration of the way home and freedom, in the right context, with the right person, can feel like exactly the same thing.

Blake's well-crafted adult debut Delilah Green Doesn't Care combines everything you could want in a sapphic romance--snark, steam and sweetness--with an intricate exploration of what it means to love someone and how we choose to show it, all spearheaded by its unforgettable protagonist Delilah who you'll simultaneously want to be and be with forever.She plans to breeze in and out, but then she sees Claire Sutherland, one of Astrid's stuck-up besties, and decides that maybe there's some fun (and a little retribution) to be had, after all. So I’m happy to say that although Delilah Green was not the new favourite I hoped for, it still definitely lived up to the hype.

Delilah Green Doesn’t Care is the dreamy, steamy, utterly satisfying answer to your craving for an outcast-and-former-mean-girl romance. From every single character having their own distinct lives and personalities to the ~RELATIONSHIPS~ between them, this book was perfect. I always get so nervous about books that get a lot of buzz because I'm afraid that I won't feel the same way as other readers, but this one did not disappoint. She was left out of many friend groups when she was younger, so she packed and moved out as soon as she could, following her passion for photography. I don't know how to really articulate this but I feel like we're finally getting the type of books that straight people get and it makes me so hopeful.

On the counter, the phone stilled, Astrid's name disappearing, only to pop back up like a greeting card from hell. I’ll be skipping the rest of this series, which is a shame since I was hoping this would be a winner.

I was looking forward to reading a sapphic romance, but I’ve read novellas that had more of an impact. This book is told from a dual point of view and I really enjoyed reading from both Delilah and Claire. On the one hand, a Parker society wedding in Bright Falls was the absolute last thing she wanted to do right now. Claire has her own ghosts to deal with in the form of an unreliable ex with whom she shares a daughter who has been repeatedly let down by her dad.Blake’s well-crafted adult debut Delilah Green Doesn’t Care combines everything you could want in a sapphic romance—snark, steam and sweetness—with an intricate exploration of what it means to love someone and how we choose to show it, all spearheaded by its unforgettable protagonist Delilah who you’ll simultaneously want to be and be with forever. i almost DNFed this at page 250 but decided to stick it through, and i'm really sad this didn't live up to the hype for me.
