Soft Core by Britany Newell is an atmospheric, dreamy coming-of-age novel that unfolds like a hazy lullaby—slow, melancholic, and immersive. The writing is poignant yet restrained, perfectly capturing Ruth’s grief and loneliness. While it lacked a strong hook, its quiet, gritty exploration of desire and sex work felt raw and real. I wanted more plot around Dino!!!! A bedtime story for the introspective.

a solid 2.5 for me - because of the "plot" - lovely character writing!

Thank you NetGalley & ‎Farrar, Straus and Giroux for the ARC!
