Average Rating: 
Rating: - AMAZING!!!!
I stumbled upon this book as something to read on vacation when I had read everything there was already by my favorite authors. What I found was a book I could not put down. It was beautiful, intriquing, true to the challenges in the lives of so many, and wrought with history! I hope that everyone meets someone in their life that cativates their hearts like Nessie. This book was of the best I have ever read and I hope there will be others like it from Marianne in the future.

Rating: - Warm hearted story filled with wonderfully drawn characters
I had very high expectations for this novel as it was a Lambda Literary finalist and deservedly so. Much more than a romance it's the story of many different people with a variety of issues that by the end of the novel you end up knowing as you do your own friends. Believe the other reviews, this should be on your must read list. I've read it twice now and enjoyed it even more the second time. Perfect for a lazy afternoon or evening.
