Review: Beautiful Losers
Rating: 5 out of 5

This book is so worthy of the 5 stars. It is at heart the love story of three very marginalised, unique characters. All of them are carrying emotional baggage but they are able to form a "family".This is a very erotic book but it is written with depth and intensity, it is a very emotional and poignant read. Jean and Sebastian are lovers (M/M) who for reasons that are revealed in the book bring Shira into the relationship.I agree that there was a sense of fatalism when reading the book. I would have liked to know at least how Jean fared, I felt he was the most fragile of the characters. It is the mark of an excellent writer when you are still thinking about a character when you come to the end.Yes, the book is erotic, but it is so much, much more. A pleasure to read.
