Mx. Phoebe

There are not enough words to express how much I love this book. I said that George was a must read and I am saying that Rick is a must read! Alex Gino is a freaking genius. Gino has managed to shed a light on parent's answers as to when is too young? A person's questions as to when do they need to know? All while telling a beautiful story of love and connection between old and young.

Gino has the same characters from George in Rick, but the story is told a year later and from Rick's point of view. It is hard being a kid, no matter what your gender or sexual identity is and someone asking you what it is or asking yourself what it is can be difficult to answer. Gino explores this issue with Rick's character. His parents seem “hip” and cool as to saying the politically correct things, but going through the motions. It is an unlikely source in Rick's eyes that ends up shining a light on who he can be.

I really hope that Mx. Gino continues writing these types of books because we need them. They are beautiful stories that help people get a better understanding of what it is like being human.

I got this book from my library. I love my local library and you should check out yours too. Request LGBTQ+ books and they will stock them! #ebooksforall

Turning 50 is hard enough, but try competing with your daughter for the hot bartender.

Blake Crystal is turning 50 and she has four daughters and a bad lover. Wait...got rid of the bad lover to hit on the very young bartender at the beginning of her birthday celebration. The problem is she has to compete with her very hot daughter Alexis, but she has her own problems with both of her lovers and any stray ones she happens to pick up along the way. Alexis also wants to know who her birth father is and demands answers from Blake. In the meantime, the young bartender is having his own problems with an ex, his best friend, and fighting off his own urges to resist or not resist the Crystal women.

Mary B. Morrison packs a lot in Baby, You're The Best, book one in “The Crystal Series”. Blake is a hot 50 dealing with the usual issues of 50 and she is not a perfect 50 and does not make excuses for it. Her daughters fight just as other kids fight even though they are adults. There are unexpected turns in the book, I will give a warning as there is a rape scene in the book. There is also some interesting sex scenes using props, but nothing too extreme. I enjoyed reading Morrison as she has imagination when it comes to plot twists and the sex scenes as she does not write the norm which is very refreshing. I do not know if I would read this in public as some of the sex scenes might have you squirming in your seat...or maybe you like that. (smile).
