And dialogue often reads overly formal, overwrought and allergic to contractions.īut beneath these writing blemishes is a truly engaging look at BDSM nerds and what makes them tick. A good portion of the book is devoted to the revealing of Ally’s biggest regret, and while Ally’s self-repeating rambling can be justified by her discomfort, a cluster of friends detailing almost the exact same account just outside the door feels both unnecessary and like a missed opportunity, as their conversation offers little additional insight. Unfortunately, opening up Sunstone’s world for a better look also puts the spotlight on some of Sejic’s shortcomings as a writer, with repetitious dialogue and clunky, almost uncertain narration boxes hampering the story’s flow. While the first volume focused almost entirely on Ally and Lisa, volume two pulls back to also take a look at Ally’s past, as well as highlight a few new characters and their dynamics with each other. Sunstone follows Lisa as she submerges herself in Ally’s leather-and-latex world, making new friends and falling ever-deeper in love… Written and drawn by Stjepan Sejic, Sunstone is a polished-up version of Sejic’s webcomic of the same name. After meeting online and bonding over a shared interest, Lisa and Ally decided to meet in real life and hit it off immediately.
