Reviewer Ann Somerville at Outlaw Reviews has recently delivered her verdict on Julie Bozza's very popular BUTTERFLY HUNTER. It's probably fair to say that the book had less direct appeal for her than it has for many other readers, but even so she found plenty of positive things to say about it!
The story of Nicholas’s quest for – obsession with – the mysterious blue butterfly, was charming and compelling. Nicholas himself is an utter love, and needs many cuddles :) . Dave is a nice guy, if not particularly interesting to me, and has his own demons to slay. His ex-girlfriend (from childhood even!) Denise is a supportive friend without tipping over into tiresome yenta territory. The book is competently written and edited, and Bozza does make a decent fist at comedic lines. The growing relationship between Nicholas and Dave is very sweet, and if you like sex in your romance, there’s plenty of it and nicely written too.
On the basis that you can't please all of the people all of the time, we're very glad that she enjoyed BUTTERFLY HUNTER enough to want to review it!
