Summary: Can't put it down
Review: This is one of those books you don't want to stop reading because each chapter leaves you hanging for the next. The lives of each character draw you in closer and the tie-in is fabulous. Highly recommend for a quick, light read!!!

Summary: Interesting and light read
Review: Armistead Maupin does a brilliant job in intertwining the lives of nearly a dozen people in his internationally-acclaimed "Tales of the City." The book is quite a quick read, interesting, and also provides a great commentary on life during the 70s. Maupin, who is himself a homosexual, also does a good job of using the story to paint a picture of the gay community. Similarly, he does a fabulous job of describing San Francisco and the interesting culture that exists there. This book is recommended for all, especially those that are looking for an amusing book to read on a nice afternoon.
