Summary: Sushi for the Soul!
Review: I am a straight woman and I found this love story captivating! It is clear that the road to love, whether between 2 women, 2 men or a man and a woman can be the same rollercoaster ride! How exciting to see it throught the eyes of Ms. Carrera. She captures the passion and frustration that the roadblocks of life present with humor and empathy. Her characters are caught in the web of life choices we all face- desire for love, career, social pressure, yet she proves that if you are true to yourself you will be rewarded. BRAVA Juliet!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Inside Out" Lands Right On Top!
Review: I am an avid reader and I picked this up from my wife's night table, just to browse. Well, by the time I was done "browsing" I was totally captured in this very exciting love story. It was very hard to put this book down. Juliet paints characters that are very real and I liked them and was interested in what happens to them. For a first novel I was quite pleased with the quality of this story. The momentum is exciting and it leaves me looking for more books by this talented young woman!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must read, indeed!
Review: I don't care who/what you are, this book is an absolute MUST READ! From page 1 all the way through to page 396, you will find yourself unable to put it down; sometimes unable to breathe; sometimes unable to stop crying, screaming, yelling...Breathtaking, invigorating, hopeful...you name it, Juliet Carrera has created it in Inside Out...I can't wait for the sequel!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Well-written and enjoyable
Review: I found this book to be well-crafted and at times quite fun. It was like a nighttime "adult drama" -- overwrought and improbable, but still fun.

I appear to be the only lesbian to review the book so far, and I would advise those lesbians who are looking for a book where lesbianism is something that deeply involves and drives the characters may be a little disappointed. This book appeals to a more mainstream reader. I'm not saying that that is a bad thing; it is within the author's purview to decide what audience she wants to attract. At times I personally felt the fact that the love triangle was between three lesbians was just a little too understated. Having said that, Carrera does end with a ringing endorsement of both the universal nature of love and the power of love to bring peace.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Summer Reading-Action, Love and Humor all in one!
Review: I loved this book! finally a really great book from a woman's hand about all the most important things we deal with! The story is a very modern love story, a love triangle between three women and it is so totally on the mark about all the issues. The characters are real and the pace is quick. Carrera's writing is witty and funny. Her talent is in making a story that really keeps your attention. The pages turn faster than you think and before you know it you are wanting more! I am keeping a close watch for her next book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ABSOLUTELY WOW & WHEN IS THE SEQUEL COMING OUT
Review: If you only own one lesbian book, make it this one!!! You will not be sorry. I have an entire library of lesbian fiction and this one is far and above the BEST!!!! I am anxiously awaiting the sequel from Ms. Carrera. This book is not just your typical, girl meets girl, and falls in love story. There is so much depth to the characters, you will feel like you know them personally. I promise, you wont be sorry if you purchase this book.

Summary: inside out
Review: Reading this book was time consuming . I believe that the story was interesting but the flow was missing. The potential of this being a "must read" book was lost after the first chapter. Ms. Carrera added too many details needed at the last minute. It lacked the continuum of a good story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WAY TO GO JULIET!
Review: This is one of the best books I have read all year! This is a great love story, with great characters that you can't wait to know what happens to them next. I read this book in one sitting, I couldn't put it down! Juliet Carrera has created characters and a story line that makes me hungry to know what happens to them next! I hope we don't have to wait long for the sequel!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderfully Crafted!
Review: What can I say - I loved this book! I read it practically overnight...I couldn't put it down! Juliet Carrera has crafted a wonderfully written story, with people in it that you're going to love and some you're going to hate - you know, regular folks. This is a story about true passion and what one person will do to protect the one she loves. I really don't want to give away too much of this story but I will say that I read the last few pages with dizzying speed and, by the time I was done, there were tears of happiness in my eyes. Yes, there is a happy ending and that's all I'm going to tell you, except to say read this book! You'll be glad you did!
