Comfort and Joy by Jim Grimsley

What’s good: the very real pain, confusion, and fear of admitting to oneself and loved ones about being gay. Excellent writing in that regard. Once again, this particular topic breaks my heart that any parent could not accept their child. I look forward to the day my son brings home a man he loves and the day I get two sons for the price of one....after college preferably :-)

What’s not so good: hints at storylines that never actually happen. Why bother bringing it up if it’s not going to be finessed in any significant manner? I admit that I was briefly afraid I had picked up a gay version of harlequin romance, which I cannot stomach no matter who the characters are. Fortunately it was not that at all.
