I finished reading The Choice of Men today and thought it was excellent. It's a good story and one that hasn't been told before. I read it quickly because it was very engrossing. I felt so caught up in the world of Heber, Ruth, Eric and Elizabeth and kept wanting to read on! The book is so well structured and paced and it was easy to imagine the world of the characters. The historical details are woven in very subtly. It's a sad story but with a hopeful and uplifting ending. It's an important story to tell. I have always had gay friends in my life, ever since high school. I know it is still a difficult world to be gay in and the world is still very heterosexually biased. I love all the detail of Pasadena and LA at the time period.
