Summary: The Book of my Affection
Review: This book is oozing with character. It is so much better than the film. It even has a slighty different story line, which I prefer. I find it hard to find a book I enjoy but, McCauley's masterpiece had me gagging for more. I didn't want the book to end. This is a book you can read time and time again. A real gem!

Summary: Good read but disappointing ending
Review: This book really taught me a lot about two different types of people being able to love each other. George is a person that seems to have low self-esteem and Nina is a treasure in her own way. The book flows from one sceen to the next with both George and Nina looking for love, but being unable to find it. Nina's boyfriend is so overbearing that it is to the point of becoming ill. George's boyfriend is just a player, and treats him very bad. How can someone kick you out without telling you first? I laughed and almost cried in the book. It really pulled me into the characters and I could almost imagine the apartment and how it was decorated. I was a little dissapointed with the ending, but then not every ending is happy!

Summary: Exceptional
Review: This is certainly not the most important book I've ever read, nor is it a staggering work of resounding proportions, but it's exteremly well-written and has a wonderful story, great characters (flawed and wandering) and wonderful, wonderful prose. I finished reading this book and then gave it to my own Nina as a gift. Believe me, you'll like this book.
