    " fast read, entertaining. prose awkward at times, and often some characters felt a little too "perfect" - too stereotypical or unbelievable. but i see why he is a best seller. feels like cotton candy, this one did. I think I'll try to read "and this too shall pass" next. "

    " Okay, so E. Lynn Harris wasn't a talented writer. But that's not why anyone reads him anyways. People read his books because they tell the stories of Black men who are OMG SUCCESSFUL! And GAY! Or SEXUALLY CONFLICTED! And who fall in love with OTHER GAY BLACK MEN! And there are HAPPY ENDINGS! In other words, stories that you mostly can't find anywhere else in the entire universe of mainstream published literature, because mainstream published literature doesn't think these stories are worth publishing. For that alone, I refuse to give anything he wrote less than three stars. (Even though, bless his dear departed heart, the prose is just so bad that I can't quite bring myself to ever give him more than three stars...) "
