review 1: I just love these, with neither rhyme nor reason nor much need for review. I did feel that Jonty let us all down a bit in this one, but I suppose nobody's perfect. And for the first time in the series, the mystery had nothing to do with homosexuality! That was a surprise, although I suppose it would have been too tiring and boring to continue coming up with such limited plot lines.These are great for comfort reads. One of those things that, as long as you appreciate the narrative voice and general atmosphere of the story, you can just sink into and relax with. Ahhhhh.
review 2: I almost didn't read this story, and I actually started it with the intention of reading just a bit of the beginning and then skipping to the end. The reason is that the plotline involve... mores Jonty being really and truly tempted to "cheat" on Orlando with the director of a play being staged in Bath. He'd known Jimmy, who is an American and who doesn't hide his desires or intentions, back at school, although I'm not exactly sure which school. St. Brides? Anyway, I thought I could barely face the disruption of the special bond between Jonty and Orlando...but I was wrong. The author doesn't skirt the issue; rather, she faces it not only head-on but also in a thorough and mature way. I was really struck by the honesty of the situation from Jonty's point of view. It resonated. It felt familiar, because who in a committed relationship has not been tempted? Excellent, excellent work on the part of the author! I am truly impressed. less
