While I initially thought that this was going to be a self-contained story in its own right, upon having read it I now think that this is instead a compilation of a (roughly) 12 issue long comic run.

Some of the episodes, I felt, were far superior to others: in some (perhaps more than I was comfortable with), I didn't really follow what was happening.
There is an over-arching plot throughout the entire series, with Superman 'overpowering' himself with solar radiation in the opening of the first episode, and with his body beginning to fail as a result.

I also found the art-style slightly off-putting: I can understand drawing the man of steel in a square/blocky 'strong' art style, but ma and pa Kent? Really?

Perhaps not the best of introductions for anybody new to Superman comics.

MILK is the second novella in the Unhinged Holidays series, and if you've read any of this author's books, you'll know you're in for an extra hot and spicy story. And yes, this is definitely hot milk!!!

Santa is on the lookout for his fated mate, the Winter Maiden, who will help save Christmas. When he finds Holly, he knows she is the one. Holly's body reacts in a specific way to Nick's presence, which he loves, and so does she!

Told from both perspectives, this is a fast-moving instalove, full of Christmas cheer, and enough kink to keep you happy. Filthy and fabulous, I am loving this series, and will definitely be reading this one again! After all, what is Christmas without milk and cookies for Santa?

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
