Review: Delightful character study
Rating: 5 out of 5

I've read several books by this author and have always become completely invested in her main characters. This short story gives us a chance to get close to one of her ancillary characters from another book. Actually, a couple of them if your really observant; but I leave that for her other fans to discover. Regardless, this delightful story takes the reader into the city, into a different culture, and by that I don't mean Jewish. Though there is that too. What with the 'gaydar' and Yiddish hipness, the story is wonderfully human. Proof enough that none of us live on different planets when it comes to romance and love. Its all one world and we are just trying to live in it. That is the delightful message that I got from the story. It is a wonderful message to take from life. It appears that we will be getting more stories featuring Charlie and the other characters that occupy his world. This is great news for us fans.
