Rainbow Book Reviews
Enre and Kalman, from ‘Hotter Than Hell’, are back and while the calming influence the more logical Kalman has had on the passionately fiery Enre has shown first results, his “turning Enre into a calmer version of himself”-project is proving to be more difficult and take longer than he anticipated. Not that he isn’t enjoying every inch of the road they’re traveling together, it’s just the speed at which they seem to be going, on occasion is a little much for Kalman. Take the example of them sharing an apartment, now that they are together. Kalman has just about started considering it, deciding to talk to Enre about it when Enre knocks on his door, surrounded by suitcases, cardboard boxes, and some bags. He’s had an opportunity to break his lease without a fee, so he decided to take it and move in with Kalman. The whole situation made me smile and what the two men do, and the obstacles they encounter as they proceed, is a wonderful peek into their lives together. If you like short, sweet reads about men who couldn’t be more different, yet have the same goals in life, if impulsive men and their issues, or lack thereof, sound like fun, and if you enjoy reads centered round everyday lives and issues, then you might like this short story.
