review 1: 3.7 - At the end of this all, I absolutely loved it. The title is horrible, yet I understand it. James, you just want to hate him, but you know his snarky hate is just a protection mechanism and he really is a sweet socially inept geek that is just to smart. Turkish/Yusef is a shinning star, smarter than you think he is and just a delight. Would like him to be my friend. This story is uncomplicated and tells a plain old love story of James and Turkish. There are bumps and thank GOD Turkish is patient......so that we can all smile at the end of this story. I so wanted to read about the family visit! Damn I wish we got to see that!
review 2: Super-cute, that's the word that comes to mind when I think about this story.It is a sweet and straightforward romance... more between the adorably prickly and grumpy narrator of the story James, an art gallery assistant and the laid back and eccentric photographer, Turkish. James is one of those intellectual and judgmental people who hides his vulnerabilities and fears behind an abrasive mask and rapier wit. He never lets his guard down for fear of getting hurt and therefore by extension doesn't get romantically involved with anyone. It is due to sheer persistence on Turkish's part that James finally takes a chance on romance. James is a beautifully drawn and fully realized character whose insecurities about love and uncertainty about his career really hit home for me. It was lovely to see him let go of his inhibitions and emotionally grow. Although I'm still baffled why Turkish continued courting James because there were instances in the story when James was too condescending and downright brutal to him but I guess the heart wants what it wants. less
