It's epic in time span and history, hitting many 20th century touchstones of gay life in America. It's intimate in following the lives of Ned, Jack and Andy. These are your everyman men who we observe navigating their lives, loving and caring for one another, and figuring what this life means.
I was not expecting a lot of this book to turn out the way it did, and I like that. Jeff starts out seemingly confused. He has no clue why he is here and holds to that line for quite some time. As he starts making friends with those around him, the ones he considered oh-so-crazy, we start to peel ...
AudibleIt pains me a lot to rate this book under 4 stars - yes, because in spite of my personal issues with the story, I can't complain about the writing style - but for me [b:What We Remember|3097603|What We Remember|Michael Thomas Ford|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348869639s/3097603.jpg|3128758]...
Well, it kept me entertained even if it had it's annoyances. It picked up for me about halfway through. Lucy was my favorite character. She was fun! Jane, well, a bit boring. I hated, HATED the Charlotte Bronte twist. [spoiler] Why can't two beautiful, sweet women who were definitely living in...
4,5 stars!Another great book from Michael Thomas Ford, one of my favourite authors by now. With a fabulous voice of Blake Somerset, one of my favourite narrators in the meantime. The main idea of this book for me is expressed in the very last quote:We all looking for something. And some of us are lu...
If you haven't read this, you need to soon. I love Jeff. He's sarcastic, funny and easy to relate to. He says some very witty things, and for a book about suicide, there were some pretty funny moments that made me LOL. He also says some very introspective things too. I like that [spoiler] the autho...
4,5 stars!It was like reading many books at once, having being introduced to so many different fates and so many different people in one place. It's why reading Lust Summer was like watching a soap opera, but I don't mean it negatively, not at all! The story takes place in Provincetown in Massachus...
4,5 stars!Has it ever happen to you- you got a notification that someone liked your review and your first thought was - "It has to be a mistake! I have never read a book with this title!" Of course you have. But you have already forgot. Because it was nothing special in this book that could make yo...
This book didn't end up being what I was hoping. It isn't' bad but I didn't find it as good as the reviews made it seem. I like the journal format used, the days marking the protagonists stay. That made it lighter and easier to read.It is interesting and has some pretty good parts too, the end is a ...
