This is one that I read for something a little different. It is a self published book and you can tell by the editing--misspellings, capitalizations wrong, a = sign where just didn't belong. It wasn't as noticeable at the beginning of the book but the last 100 pages or so was really bad. The story well, that also seems a little far-fetched. It is about some young 20 somethings in Buffalo in the 1990s where most of the guys are into dealing drugs and the girls are the hottest things around. Lots of sex and crazy living. And by sex well it was maybe close to porno type in reading it--a sort of mature audiences only thing. I tried to look up the author and found an Amazon listing for book with a different ISBN so maybe it got cleaned up some. The author is a woman and that sort of changed my opinion somewhat at least on the sex scenes--more of women embracing the whole sexual revolution thing instead of a guy writing dirty sex with hot young things. Oh well, not a very good book but some potential it seems.
I have posted it on PBS because why not, maybe someone will want it. It is an autographed copy, not that that really matters much. I have a copy of the self published on my PBS bookshelf but not sure how long will keep them--might have to get donated away. I bought them a a library sale shelf so might be going back there.
