4.0 out of 5 stars Lively and worthwhile love story, 29 July 2007
By Benjamin (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: My Worst Date (Hardcover)
Sixteen year old Hugo is a bright and well balanced kid, he is gay and comfortable with himself, he lives with his mother Iris, a one time model, and clearly loves her very much. But things become complicate when the handsome, mysterious and apparently wealthy Mr Glenn Elliott Paul arrives on the scene and starts dating both Iris and Hugo. Iris is oblivious to the subterfuge, but not Hugo, who is able to confide in his long time school friend Macha. Hugo also has a very supportive teacher and some good friends at the strip club where he works, unbeknown to Iris, a few evenings as a dancer to raise money to help see him through college.
In addition to coping with sharing his lover with his mother and not knowing is own father, he has to deal with the normal problems a sixteen year old faces such as what to do with is life; actor, model, writer, designer, each a realistic option.
The various participants relate this story, predominately Hugo and frequently Iris, with most of the other participants getting an occasional word in apart from Glenn Elliott. It is a lively, frank and insightful tale told with humour; and with plenty of bedroom, or any other place that is convenient, activity. The characters are mostly attractive physically and in personality, and Hugo himself is adorable. Despite all the problems he has the maturity to see a way through and one is left with a positive feeling for his future.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very enjoyable read, 13 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: My Worst Date: A Novel (Paperback)
I found the characters sympathetic, the plot seemingly implausable (in reality, having worked in the bar/sex industry, I know that it is very possible), and the writing in need of a strong editor. I was hooked from the start and greatly enjoyed it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Thin, 20 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: My Worst Date: A Novel (Paperback)
I wanted to like this book, but it was so thin and glib. I didn't feel like I'd read a book at all when I was finished. I didn't like any of the characters, and the writing was amateurish.
