But I'll try any author once. Thanks for the tip. Also, the top 50 reviewer Icky made my day. Not only did he use "avid horror hound" and "shenanigans" in one review, but he apparently believes reviewing=summarizing. Plus, his primary objection to the book was [quote name="some amazon fag"]The difficulty comes from Brite's use of stereotyping. The world of the homosexual presented here is one of endless drug use and reckless sexual behavior. The impression the reader gets from this book is that all homosexuals engage in these practices on a regular basis, which is definitely far from the truth.[/quote] I haven't read the book, of course, but from what I gather [quote]Moreover, Brite's rantings against AIDS and how no one in society cares falls flat when she has her characters living lives of immense risk for the disease. Acquiring any potentially fatal virus is a tragedy for anyone, but when people continue to engage in behaviors when they know what the consequences might be is a tragedy of another sort, namely one of sheer idiocy. And that is exactly what several of the characters here do when they overtly declare they do not care if they get sick.[/quote] is a staggeringly stupid thing to say.[/quote]
