5/22/2023 0 Comments Conventionally yours book![]() ![]() ![]() I was here for one reason, and one reason only-the high I got from winning. A road trip is planned, people sign up for various reasons, shit happens, and Conrad and Alden end up alone on their New Jersey to Las Vegas drive. Protagonists Conrad and Alden are part of a group that has gained some popularity on YouTube from their local card shop and have been offered complimentary tournament entries. ![]() Albert set it at a card game convention (basically a parallel Magic the Gathering), and revisits a trope she leaned heavily on in her #gaymers series, the road trip. I loved the concept of this book going into it. Don’t be mistaken, I thoroughly enjoyed it and my adoration of Albert has not lessened, I think maybe it’s just matured. It’s no secret that I adore Albert’s books-seriously, I created a tag so it’s even easier for you to find them and I’m slowly working my way through her entire back list, but this one hasn’t stayed with me like some of her other series. If I would’ve written this right after I finished it would’ve been effusive and glowing, but about a week later it’s much more measured (I think). I’m not sure if it’s a good thing or a bad thing I let so much time pass between finishing this and writing this review. ![]()
