Hungry Business: A Gothic Story about the Horrors of Dating by Maria DeBlassie – Review by Brittany Porter

Hungry Business by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Definitely giving off prologue vibes, but not in a bad way. I’m not usually one for short reads, but this was done in such a witty and fun way, I truly enjoyed it. I mean, I certainly wouldn’t be disappointed if there were some longer sequels in the books, but I didn’t feel like there was a cliffhanger that I couldn’t recover from after finishing the final page. If anything, I was excited to find a new author to add to my list of favorites. I really got the sense that the whole book was one big parallel metaphor for dating in the real world today. The struggle is real! Maintaining appearances, avoiding predators, worrying about your safety, dodging creeps wanting more than what you had in mind… Don’t hesitate and just read this short story. You won’t be disappointed.
