The Gospel of Andrew Jones (BL)
Star quarterback, captain of the football team, pretty face, perfect body, great personality, and brains; Andrew Jones is just--well perfect. That is until he realizes that he keeps dying, and time continues to reverse back to any day when he—you know—dies.
Even worse, Andrew is being hunted by strange, masked men, the new kid in school—Sebastian—keeps playing his hero (while not-so-obviously showcasing his immense crush for Andrew), and now Andrew can raise the dead (which would be cool if he ironically didn’t find out that now he’s immortal?). Dealing with homework and his social life is enough, but now at 17, Andrew has to deal with this bullshit?
Andrew’s life switches from perfect to chaotic as he learns more about himself, his powers, the differences between friend and foe, and—well—love, as Andrew himself starts to fall in love with Sebastian while also searching for his purpose—his reason to exist.
I’m not sure where to start, really. The author’s style of writing is unique and it enhances the storytelling significantly as you are easily able to read into the emotions of the character. The plot itself is unsettling, but in a good way. Scenes are vivid in description and they weave into each other well. Only minor downside is that the chapters are a little short, but that is to be expected from a novel of this quality.
I had a lot of fun reading this story! It’s darker than most light novels on here, but the writing is…really freaking good…chillingly, almost-like crazy good. Characters seems really interesting, I’m excited to feed more into this sexi plot and already am excited for endgame, also shipping Sebastian x Andrew off bat. 8.9/10.
Overall this was…amazing? One of the best light novels I’ve read in well, a while? The setting is my fav-school-there seems to action, the characters seem really interesting, and I’m already invested in the plot. Like why can’t Andrew die? Why am I craving more Seb x Andrew moments? Overall I can’t wait to read what’s next and um reread this once you finish uploading it! This is just-yumm.
This book so far is really unique. The pacing and order of chapters is really unique, different from what I’m used to with light novels! Can’t wait for the next chap author!
This isn't your typical light novel and it definitely takes some discipline as a reader to get through, but overall it's good, albeit a little bit of a creepy idea/ disturbing. Keep writing Author!
