Why choose Sublime Book Review?

Finding the right reviews for the right budget can be hard for an Indie or self-published author. And in many cases, you unknowingly pay for a review that is 100% guaranteed positive. While it’s nice for a reviewer to tell you your book is “the greatest book ever written,” this doesn’t necessarily help you, the author, and it certainly doesn’t help the industry leaders (librarians, booksellers, media professionals) make calculated decisions about purchasing your book or requesting your title for their library.

In Joseph Lewis' latest crime thriller entitled Fan Mail, Randy and Bobby face trouble when they and their close friend, Danny, begin receiving fan mail that quickly becomes anything but complimentary. As the boys grapple with this mystery, police also investigate an explosion from a car bomb, as well as the sudden heart attack of someone close to them all. Adding another layer to the storyline is a family drama concerning Brian - Jeremy's adoptive son who faces challenges in both his relationships at home and among peers while struggling with issues related to sexuality. With danger mounting around every corner, the reader wonders what is coming next for these families.

In his latest work, Joseph Lewis confronts difficult issues within the LGBTQ+ community through a heartfelt lens. From depictions of abuse and drug use, to healing and love shared between brothers-in-arms, this novel explores it all with a slow buildup that focuses more intensely on relationships leading up to the novel’s climax. An array of characters, both new and old, can be confusing for the reader if not paying close attention. While this book stands alone in its own right, it contains allusions that will be best understood when read alongside other novels written by Lewis - making for an even more compelling experience.

Sublime line: “Fan Mail masterfully explores brotherhood and healing while delivering a compelling crime thriller in this latest from Joseph Lewis.”
