review 1: A time-traveling homosexual--being chased by two evil Dick Cheneys--on a mission to save his sister from suicide, stop his boyfriend from becoming a Republican, and derail George W. Bush's ascendancy to the presidency?!? So absurd it surely cannot be pulled off; and yet, with this deeply funny and touching novel, Bob Smith more than pulls it off. A must-read for any gay Doctor Who fan/hater of the Bush presidency.
review 2: What would you do if you had the opportunity to go back in time and meet yourself? I hope it's a lot like this book. The tone is a pitch perfect --modulating seamlessly between laugh out wittiness, keenly observed trueisms and painful emotional realities. Particularly surprising and refreshing is the book's unrelenting politcal stance. He
... more lets the villains remain the villains even though explaining (in this world) the reasons for their villianous acts. He also completely captures what's good, bad and ugly being young and not so young. Add to this romance without sappiness, boundless imagination, sexiness, silliness and wisdom and you have this compltely satisfying and utterly fabulous book. I can't say enough good things about it. less
