Rating:  Summary: Chap 16 page 211........ Review: That is as far as I could get. You know the saying...."Don't judge a book by it's cover."? Take that advise!!! I am this far in the book and nothing that caught my attention from the books excerpt has happened yet. This book is well written, but I was totally expecting something else. This is a great book for 21 and under. Or if you want to reflect in your high school days. Even then, not every girl I met in high school feel in love with me.(...) I am just disappointed of the turn out. I am not a quiter, so I am just putting it aside and hopefully I will get the urge to finish it by the end of summer.
Rating:  Summary: Disappointed! Review: The book jacket covered only about a tenth about the book was reaklly about: the main's character early love lessons and how it affected him later in life. And really the author did not make a connection betwwen the main character's early and current lives.
Rating:  Summary: Good Read Review: the book was good for a first time author. I read it in a day. It kept my attention and was a page turner. I can't wit till the next book
Rating:  Summary: Loneliness Review: The book was well written had to check several times to make sure I was reading a fiction. Beginning to end was remarkable. All the characters were excellent but Eric stood out he was simply sexy. The poems were enjoyable. There is no one in the book that I dislike. E. Lynn Harris look out....Alex Hairston is on the scene. Excellent writing.
Rating:  Summary: Not A Good Read Review: The main character was portrayed as a teen sex addict. Not sure where the author was going with this - but I hope this is not the typical actions of most teenage males. This was more of a biography - not what I expected. Better luck next time.
Rating:  Summary: Emotional High Review: This book captures the essesence of sex and love, and all the emotion that goes with it. I couldn't put the book down. When I finished reading, I was feigning for more. This was an easy read where the author exposes you to feelings of infatuation, lust, turmoil, the loss of true loss, and complete happiness. Alex Hairston has me hooked.
Rating:  Summary: UMMM.....OK Review: This book was just OK. Something to waste time with, to me this book seemed very unrealistic. Eric falls in love with every girl he meets and this is starting at the age of 16. Every girl that meets him is head over heels no matter if he is 17 and she is like 21. He seems to pump his self up throughout the whole book and there is confusing moments when you don't know if it is present time or the past. The book could use more structure, and some more realism.
Rating:  Summary: This book was the bomb Review: This book was really good if you are looking for a page turner this is it. It starts off good and it keeps you guessing for what's going to happen next. This is his first novel I can't wait for his next book

Rating:  Summary: Interesting... Review: This is an interesting coming of age story about a young man's sexual awakening throughout his high school and college years. However, the preview on the back of the book leads the reader to believe that the story will be about the lead character's current life and loves as an adult, when in fact only about 10% of the book actually deals with that. Since this is an Advance Uncorrected Proof, perhaps the preview can be changed to reflect what the majority of the book is about. The story is good but would be more enjoyable if the readers expectations were set for what the book is actually about. Reviewer: ES
