review 1: I usually love B.G. Thomas' books, and I had so much looked forward to this one.Now the reason for the somewhat lower rating here - three, maybe three and a half - is pretty much because of one reason only; I could not get past Max "infidelity" (which took place in his mind, not in flesh if I'm to be correct) towards his wife. I know they didn't have much in common and that Thomas' described their relationship as friendly, rather than romantic. It still made me uncomfortable throughout the entire novel. I know, maybe I should have refrained from reading this novel, because I knew beforehand what I was getting into. It didn't help matters that I did not even like Max's wife. When reading this author before I have always been delighted at how well he describes the female cha... moreracters, just as he is amazing at describing older characters. I am glad however both that I started reading it and that I finished. My impression of Max's relationship with his wife changed slightly, and for the better towards the end. And reading this novel meant I had a better understanding of the second book of Seasons of Love, Summer Lover, which is novel I read with much more ease of heart, the way I expect when reading a B.G. Thomas' story.
review 2: Max has been married for fifteen years. Suddenly, when his wife heads off to Paris for an extended business trip, he begins to realize that his life has been a mistake. Not all of it, because he has a son. Logan is a wonderful son. But Max has missed the signs that Logan might be gay. And just might be gay himself.Next door lives Sloan McKenna, who is still grieving the loss of his mother. His relationships have problems, that is because he refuses to move on from his last lover. His four friends make up his support group, but although they try, Sloan can't or won't accept their help. He tends his mother's prize flowers and goes to work. And secretly covets his neighbor, MaxThere's lot going on. For one thing we're back in Terra's Gate. And there are plenty of old friends to be met and remembered.. There's. Bean, from the coffee shop. There is Baily, Cranston, and Watch, the law firm. There's Coop. And of course, Peter Wagner himself puts in an appearance. But with the mention of Kit, my heart shook. It's funny, but of all B. G.'s wonderful characters, Kit has stayed with me. I've often thought of him and what became of him, his art, and his Grumble Monkey.This story is rich with meaning, inner struggles and some comedic relief. It is rich and full of the kinds of characters and story that make B. G. what he is. Reading this made me realize how much his characters have come to mean to me, and in the bigger picture, how much we are all connected. less
