Lambda Book Report

Carol LeMasters – The best romances don’t simply evade issues; they offer us another way of dealing with them. After all, the issues with which these women struggle–homophobia, mortality, barriers of age and class–are ones we all encounter. More than enjoyable diversions, they can offer humorous insights into how we conduct relationships and truths we can take with us into “real life.” Situations may be cliché but not the authors’ treatment of them, and no matter how far-fetched the circumstances, the characters’ emotional experiences ring true.
