What a fun,
delightful book ! This is the first book I've read by Marshall Thorton
and I feel like I've going to be adding his entire back catalog to my
TBR pile.
This book deals
with something we're all familiar with in the gay community:
stereotypes and labels. Lionel is a flamboyant, queeny waiter at a
gay bar and Dog is a straight-acting bear that comes in the bar with
his gay softball team. You wouldn't think these two would get
together, would you ? But, you'd be wrong. Despite enduring some
often funny (and cringe-inducing) mishaps trying to figure out how to
be together as a couple, Lionel and Dog end up together in the end.
Woo Hoo !
So, the lesson
learned ? Don't be afraid to date outside your “type”. You just
might be surprised at what you find. This is a great, feel-good love
story. A++
