The room itself was clean but outdated, overall we had no problems with the conditions of the hotel however the activities were a different story. It is Henry who disappears first, as a mysterious new illness arrives, hitting a now-familiar wall of fear, denial and misinformation.

I had no idea who anyone was, and so I didn’t feel much connection to the author or the stories she was telling. The book grinds on though, and it’s a hard read at points, the speed and ruthlessness of beautiful men dying is hard to take, if (fictional character from It’s A Sin) Derek’s death made you cry, be prepared to share the grief still felt by Jill for the deaths of so many others. There’s a delicious honouring foreword from fellow Wales born – Russell T Davies – who shares his love for Jill and the reasons he based It’s A Sin on her life. Yes, there is tradegy, confusion, prejudice and fear found in this book, but it is love that you are left with.Because even though we knew some of these men would not survive, Davies made us care deeply about their lives.
