A Clean Up Man by M.T. Pope

A Clean Up Man Reviews

  The blurb sounds really homophobic. The man who "turned" him? Gay? Seriously? Given the blurb of another of the author's books: "Shawn makes the mistake of befriending James, a gold-digging bisexual with a secret agenda. Pushing Shawn head first into a life of sex, secrets, and lies, James will stop at nothing to get what he wants," I doubt this book is very gay-empowering. You don't become gay because someone pushed you into it. Despite what the tea-party would have you believe, gays aren't out there recruiting. Frankly, most gay people I know might have a one-night stand with someone experimenting, but have no interest in trying to build a relationship with someone who considers themself straight, as sexy as GFY books are. This doesn't sound like a GFY book, though, it sounds like everything is being blamed on a bi guy. (And speaking for bisexuals, we're not out there to convert, either.)
  
  If someone can tell me more about the book I would appreciate it.

  Riddled with typos and homophobia, saddled with a completely ridiculous plot and a protagonist who's a promiscuous, self-loathing, hypocritical moralizing jackass. And it's so incredibly redundant. Here's part of a paragraph from the final chapter:
  
  "Who would have thought that I had the person I was looking for in my life all of the time, and they were doing the exact thing I needed them to do, but I didn't accept it in the form that it came in? We as people always want what we want and we want it in the package that we want it to come in. But life doesn't work that way; we get the things that we need, it just never comes in the package that we want it to come in. Be it a mate, money, or a question about life. I knew now that if I asked for something, more than likely I'd get it, but not in the package that I'd want it to come in."
  
  I'd give this zero stars if I could. I did not "not like" this. I hated it.

  I rarely go the DNF route. But I just couldn't even bring myself to finish this. Something about the main character in here just rubbed me the wrong way. I wanted to slap him while I was reading it! And I didnt feel enough invested interest in the characters to even care to continue. The only thing I liked was the cover of this book is pretty hot haha that's what had initially pulled me in.

  Ambitious concept; incomplete execution
  This wasn’t good or bad. I think the plot or what I took to be the underlying plot the immoral, irresistible, parentally confused sexual siren who was “turned” this way by a forced blowjob in college that had him fall in love and activated his inner siren & fear of abandonment. Is that the gist? Maybe I am completely off base. This story would have done well with character development & changing up the physical scenes. And the big family secret was handled with anger & unnecessary angst. The handling of this secret as well as Kraig’ trigger that set off his act of revenge. The courtroom scene seemed extreme and tidy. While I didn’t like any of the characters and some scenes were repetitive, the concept was a good one.

  "the man who turned him" -- seriously?? Turned him into what -- a vampire? a werewolf?
  
  Sorry, Mr. Pope, but "The Gay" isn't something you can catch from other people. Your homophobia is showing.
