Summary: ENJOYABLE
Review: THIS IS MY SECOND EJD BOOK. IT WASN'T SO BAD. I MUST ADMIT THE CHARACTER'S DID GET MY EMOTIONS FLOWING. NICOLE IS SELF-CENTERED AND ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT PLEASING HERSELF. AYANNA IS A STRONG WOMAN, BUT NOT WISE ENOUGH TO TAKE UP HER PROBLEMS WITH THIS 3 WAY WITH THE WOMEN WHO IS ENCOURAGING IT. AND THE MALE CHARACTER IS LACKING A BACKBONE. THIS BOOK KEPT ME GOING. I COULND'T WAIT TO SEE WHERE IT WAS LEADING AND I MUST SAY THE DETAIL WAS GREAT.

Summary: bleh! - *revised*
Review: I didn't like this book, and not because of the content, but because of the way he wrote it.....where is the Milk in my Coffee EJD and the Friends and Lovers....I am appaled!When I started this book my frist reaction was cool!!!! Although I am glad to see a book out there about bisexuality and alternative relationships. Sadly most of the reviews i read were bashing the content not the style. things that make you go hmmm!!!!
This is about bisexuality and even polyamory. But the style he used to write this book just didn't seem like his previous books. I found it hard to get into the sotry because of the wording.

Summary: Eric Jerome Dicket Let Me down
Review: This book was definitely not one of Eric Dickey's best works. I was really surprised because I lovvvvvvve his writing style. The book was about a woman who wanted to have a threesome with her two lovers. Only, in the threesome, neither one of them could touch each other . They could only touch her. It was a book that I read and was like "What was the point?" If this is your first time reading an Eric Jerome Dickey book, you will probably like it. But, if you are a faithful Eric Jerome Dickey reader, YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Will the Real EJD PLEASE Stand UP!...
Review: After reading all of Eric Jerome Dickey's previous works I was more than excited to learn about his latest offering Between Lovers. While not admitting any bias on my part, I found myself apprehensive about reading it due to the touchy subject matter. Although Dickey has tackled issues in his books ranging from the intimate workings of the sister-friend circle, to interracial dating, to racial identity, the offering of a woman torn between her two lovers, a man and a woman, was less than appealing to me for a multitude of reasons. I was hoping there would be a surprising revelation in the book such as in Milk in My Coffee or an honest look at the male psyche in relation to the opposite sex as in Cheaters. I received none of the above. Instead I was met with the male protagonist, who is so oblivious to his only real choice in the book it is almost unbearable to read, and the ... man-hating lesbian antagonist who is rather inconsequential to the main character's resolution with the exception of being an irritation throughout the story. Quite frankly to book is so laden with the ... exploits of the two main characters it's pretty much like shelling peas by the third encounter, a chore I could live without. The consistently contrived ... scenes lack any of the eroticism of his previous works. It's almost like he took the weakest storyline in his work prior to this one, the less than original lesbian love affair in Liar's Game, and spun it into a novel. I recall hearing that EJD say he often does not throw out ideas he has for books, instead he incorporates them into his other works. I for one hope this is the last novel I will be able to read as a failed regurgitation of his prior works. Instead of turning this novel into an exercise to show his open mindedness on sexual preference hopefully he will sit down a return to the task of representing the under heard voice of Black males in literature with the honesty and strength we all so rightly deserve to hear.

Summary: Uhh...no!
Review: Okay, I'll admit it and its is final. I am not a EDJ fan. I mean I tried to read another one of his books and it just wasn't flowing. So I decieded to give him another chance, and I was again dissapointed. The story is cool. A little too much details as far as all the running the charactes did. I gave it 3 stars because I enjoyed the sex stories. I did not like how the story ended. If you like EDJ get the book, if you don't or can't decided if you like him, don't get it.

Summary: ?????
Review: I wrote a review last week I had just begun reading this book. Now half way though I am really not impressed with the story. The
characters were extremely "sorry" there is love and then there is lovin' oneself. I don't believe any of them were able to do that, thus was a story about "needy" people...

Summary: Not Outstanding!!!
Review: I just got this book about a week ago I started reading it and I am half way through.. I am not impressed. I actually feel sorry for Nicole's lovers because they really care for her. She isn't a divided soul she is "Playing" with them, why because she can...
However, if she would pick and start relationship that would be like committing.... and of course there wouldn't be a plot for a book.... I still love Milk in my coffee but this one...aaaaHHH!!

Summary: He has done much better
Review: I was very disappointed with this book. I love all of EJD's other novels, but this one totally let me down. I don't feel like the characters were developed very well, and it read like a sex novel. I still remain a great fan of EJD. I just feel that he missed the mark with this one.

Summary: Disappointed.....
Review: So far I have loved all of EJD's novels. That's why I ran out and bought this one. I understand that this subject is a rather popular one to explore lately, but I have to admit, I really expected more from such a great author. Although I was disappointed with this novel, I look forward to reading his lateset novel Thieves Paradise.

Summary: She is Between, Not Him
Review: I had to read the ending a few times before I accepted it. I at first thoought that it was a cop out, an easy way to end, but then I started to see EJD's true message; if you love someone, set her free . . . which ultimately makes sense because it is she WHO IS BETWEEN lovers, not he. This is a refreshing love story, and quite literary in its approach, for a "mainstream" romance. Boy meets girl; boy loses girl (to another girl, at that); boy gets girl back, but gives her up so that SHE can go back to girl, with whom she is more properly matched--and all of this written by a male writer! It is not often that you find a sexy, sexy, sexy, sexy but non-sexist book about lesbians written by a man. Hats off to EJD.
