![]() Oh, and I think he dyes his hair but that’s never mentioned. Something happens to her (murdered? Suicide? I’m not clear) so he makes a run for it, changing his name and wearing coloured contact lenses as a disguise. The essential premise is that a teenager called Neil has a dodgy past and ends up going on the run with his mother. I felt like I had started a trilogy in the middle of book two. My notes when reading it include “I don’t even know what the story is about any more”, “Exy appears to be completely unfathomable” and “surely those contact lenses ain’t fooling anyone?” It was badly written, badly structured, had massive plot holes, was overly detailed in parts then woefully scant in others. I was amazed – AMAZED – that there is an entire fandom surrounding the Foxhole Court series. ![]() The narrator was basic but alright.Similar to: The worst Twilight fan fiction. #Foxhole court plot freeI am talking about Neil's future romantic interest who shall remain nameless for the shake of this spoiler free review. ![]() Not gonna lie if I didnt ship the pair I would not continue the series. But the romance potential makes me intrigued to continue the trilogy. And I also listened to the second half of the book in almost twice the reading speed, hoping to get to the good parts. Dont mistake me for a hater though, I am now on my way of purchasing the second book. The story was simple and I was expecting the romance to blossom from the first book of the trilogy however it did not. But that comes from someone who finds action sequences boring so keep that in mind. And I found the sport games so so so boring. I would even dare to compare it with a fanfiction. I did listen to the whole thing within two days. I was kind of disappointed by the story of this book. I'd sorta understand it in the sports section, or the LGBT, or whatever. I fucking loved this story, but it does not belong in the relationships and romance sections. It forces him into a constant sort of high. It induces a sort of manic euphoria that makes it hard for Andrew to keep focus, or to remain 'down' for too long. its a made up drug and the effects aren't pretty, but they are consistent. Suspend your disbelief about Andrew's drugs. ![]() This is their second chance, their third, fourth it doesn't matter, as long as its one chance more than what the rest of society has given them. Each one has a past and each one has suffered for it, it's what makes them Foxes in the first place. If you've ever been down on your luck, if you've ever had possibly the worst moments of your life happening all at once and leaving you at your version of rock bottom, you'll connect and fall in love with these characters. Despite all of the warnings, it is an amazing series. ![]() Trigger warnings pertaining to Rape, Torture, Drug and Alcohol abuse, and a couple more (Like seriously, on Tumblr there is an entire list of warnings that might keep you from reading the books) 3. This series, maybe not book 1, but definitely 2 and 3, should have a lot of warnings in them. That's more on book 3 though, so read at your own risk and know what you're getting into. There isn't anything porny, but they do end up doing things. Two of the main characters end up in a 'relationship'. On that note, I've got some warnings to pass out to those of you on the fence about this series. As someone who has owned the physical and kindle books for a good 5 or so years now, I'm going to say this: I've been waiting for the audio versions for so very long that this sorta feels like a dream. ![]()
