They Say She Tastes Like Honey: A Novel
Fortysomething Macy is a rich, beautifully dressed, sought-after Sigourney Weaver look-alike who packages lesbian cruises for those who can afford them and enjoy her. She works too hard, drinks too much (despite serious asthma and declining health), and grieves the imminent loss of her longtime best friend to liver cancer. Nothing prepares Macy for how she feels when a much younger, badly dressed woman she rescues from a mugger quickly becomes integral to her life, caring for her with a sweetness and tenderness that rock her to the core. Will Faith restore the elegantly slutty Macy's faith in the possibility of a committed relationship, a family? Sawyer's delicious novel makes one laugh out loud at one moment, go teary with pity the next, as Macy presses forward, at long last, on the hard road to adulthood. And when they must leave her, many readers will yearn for a follow-up to Sawyer's delightful debut.Whitney ScottCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved
