Mystical Trash by Mary Ramsay is one of those novels that would make a great limited TV series. It’s a quick and enjoyable read following troubled teen Sunny Foster as she tries desperately to solve the mystery of her missing mother. When Jahil enters her life, he opens up a world that lays beneath the surface, a world of angels and demons. What does this fantasy world have to do with the disappearance of her mother?
Mystical trash is really well-written, with the plot throwing up some interesting surprises. I read Mystical Trash before the prequel The Book of Leo and it didn’t spoil my reading experience. I will definitely be looking to read more from Mary Ramsay in the future.
I found Mystical Trash to be an interesting and easy to follow read, it read at a good pace for me, not too fast. The book is full of mystic fantasy and it kept me interested throughout. It was recommended to me by a family member who said she had really enjoyed reading it. I do however recommend reading the first book in the series “Book Of Leo” to get full enjoyment as this title kind of picks up where the last one left off.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves reading mystical fantasy, as it is pretty great.
Mystical Trash by Mary Ramsay is the kind of kinky book that you will either love or hate. Full of explicit sex scenes, the total absence of any morality, this book is not for the faint of heart. Sunny is the main character, lives with her mom who is a teacher, and has a pretty rough life. Her mom continually engages in inappropriate behavior with her students, eventually ends up in trouble, and is basically a horrible role model. There is some mysticism thrown into this mix that does provide some interest, but overall, this reads as a sexual romp that feels overplayed and overacted in parts. It is paranormal erotica, and is probably a good book to read in a hurry while waiting for an appointment or something of the like.
Mystical Trash by Mary Ramsey is about a high school student, Sunny, who has to put up with her mother’s provocative behavior at her school. Elena is a biology teacher that really enjoys the guys in her classes. Sunny has to help her mother out of sticky situation, and then finds they have her mom’s current boyfriend and his father living in her home. When her mom disappears, Sunny finds life slumps to a whole new level.
Mary Ramsey adds much risqué in her erotic novel, Mystical Trash. With a mystical twist, the author keeps the reader guessing what Sunny will face next. I felt the author skimped on the plot and characters to rush to the next vibrant scene. With more editing, I think readers who enjoyed the erotic genre would find this book interesting.
California author Mary Ramsey is an artist, a writer and a blogger whose credentials include a degree in Cinema. She has served in the United States Air Force and in that role she traveled the world and spent significant time in the Midwest – the locale of this novella. Mary shares her fascination for superheroes, not so much of the Superman or Wonder Woman type, but those of the underrepresented minorities, abuse victims, LGBTQ range. Her books to date include UNEARTHLY DELIGHTS, CATERPILLAR, DAKOTA SON, FOUND LOVE IN A HOPELESS PLACE, CHASING WAVES, OCEAN PRINCE, RAIN DOWN TEMPLE, and BOOK OF LEO – the Prequel to this book MYSTICAL TRASH.
Mary marries her talents as writer, artist, blogger, and cinema buff and now writes naughty erotica that incorporates a bit of paranormal with suspense. Her style may not appeal to all readers, but to the young set, nurtured by contemporary memes, selfies, online ‘lucid anatomy,’ and sexual freedom, her story rings true.
The characters who populate this novel are painted well, as we discover when the first chapter introduces Sunny: ‘I framed myself in front of my mirror, wishing I could stop perspiring. Flop sweats wouldn’t help my foundation to stay in place. Hand shaking, I tried applying mascara. When it comes to beauty, I take after my late father. I have wide-set eyes like a doll’s, pale skin, thin blond hair and dark blue eyes. In fact, I really look nothing like my mother. I a way, that’s a blessing. I can easily fade into the background in moments when she’s the center of attention…For most of my life I thought my mother was simply a healer: a white witch living her life as a high school biology teacher…’ And in that brief entre many of the seeds of the plot are sewn.
The novel is rather short, and to fully appreciate the derring-do of the influences of the mood, reading BOOK OF LEO adds to the enjoyment. The raucous plot is summarized for us – ‘Sunny Foster waited her entire life to leave her truck stop hometown of Beloit Wisconsin. Her eighteen years had been nothing but pain and heartache, from the mysterious disappearance of her father to the fact that her first boyfriend left her for a world of drugs and addiction. And her mother, a high-school teacher, was in legal trouble for dating a nineteen-year old student. Out of the wreckage of Sunny’s life comes a way of hope in the form of Jahil, a Mexican immigrant, with a tragic past. Jahil has seen more of the world then Sunny could ever dream of, but there’s a reason for that. When Sunny’s mother goes missing the week of Christmas, the sheltered Midwestern girl must team with a modern-day rogue’s gallery of punks, freaks, angels, demons and one Aztec demigod, in a sexy, erotic, adventure down the rabbit hole of the Midwest.’
The story is strange, but at all times interesting – a tale that is entertaining as well as testy and thought provoking. Try Mary Ramsey on for the exploration of the bizarre!
