The Englor Affair is also a new favorite of mine and again, the characters are people you root for and want to know better. I was particularly taken and intrigued with the world JL created.

I haven’t yet read Gobsmacked, but it’s a Kati recommend – so you know I’m there.

And I’m SO with you on Hugh Jackman. That was terrific!

I would agree with what everyone else said, plus a slight expansion on the guys liking to watch two women together… I think passion and romance are appealing, and can be more so when done in an erotic manner. Most porn doesn’t really touch on the emotional aspect of passion, which is a major tenant of romance (duh, Elisa) – which is why I agree that just like men like to watch lesbians, women like to watch gay men (though I think a large amount of women like to watch lesbians as well – even if they don’t admit it). Which just goes back to what I said, passion is sexy whether it’s m/f, m/m, or f/f (or any extra combination thereof).

It’s exciting to know the male demographic of the readership is growing, because it just cements it for publishers, authors, and readers that this is a genre (or multiple genres) of worth and it should keep on coming! What got me to read m/m was actually a m/m/f book that had me thinking part way through “these men are great and obviously ave awesome chemistry together, why aren’t they exploring their sexuality with each other as well?” and then it happened – I don’t want to analyze why I had such a grin when it happened, but there it was. It was amazing. And it was all about the chemistry and emotion and trust. Then I got into reading the strictly m/m stuff and I love that as well. But then, I would: I *love* love.

So glad you enjoyed it.

But the real, burning question is: What did you think of Hugh singing last night with Beyonce?
