Rating:  - Best yet
As I have read all of Georgia's published work I am confident in saying that her writing is maturing and this is by far her best to date...The story is more involved with some surpises...Can't wait for her next book in the spring!
Rating: - Another Super Story from the 2006 Lambda Literary Award Winner

Rating:  - Not perfect, but delightful just the same
Above-average: 3-1/2 stars. My issues with this book are mostly quibbles (e.g. the author used the phrase "self-deprecating" too much), but I like Georgia Beers' voice, and care with her characters' emotions.
I'll start with the bad and end with the good. There was some inconsistency, or lost opportunity, or perhaps it was just some odd choices on the author's part, on which scenes are presented to the reader, and which are referred to after the fact. For instance, there's an initial scene where ... Read More
