I don't know where to start as I hate writing negative reviews. *sighs* Bad Idea isn't the first m/m book I've read but it is the first I've read by Damon Suede. Based on my issues with Bad Idea, I'm not sure if I will read anything else by Mr. Suede.So what was my issue with Bad Idea? I personally think this book would've been a lot better if it had been very heavily edited and shortened to novella length. So many pages should've been cut to make the book flow better. Instead of DNFing Bad Idea, I skipped sections and still felt like I could've skipped more and not missed anything. I really wanted to like this book cause it had potential. It just didn't work for me.I hate going into a book expecting one thing and getting something else. Don't get me wrong, there were things I liked about Bad Idea. It isn't often you find a book praising comics in general so being a comic reader from way back, I really liked that. So geeky goodness? Check. I just didn't like a couple of the secondary characters at all, think romance should have a HEA not a HFN ending, and even the hot man-on-man action couldn't save this book for me.
