Great Book

This book is a great read. I found it thouroghly enjoyable from start to finish. If you aren't open-minded enough to hear about gay relationships I would not advise you to read this book. To everyone else, enjoy!

Fantastic!

Have you ever pushed off finishing a book because you just didn't want it to end? This is one of those books!! The characters are so real that you'd swear that you know them from somewhere. This is the best book I have read in such a long time that I couldn't resist telling others!

Juicy and addicting

I was hooked after reading the first few pages. The engaging dialogue has the humor and juiciness of Sex and The City, but the characters in Bite have more depth and authenticity. I had moments of empathy with each of the characters, as the thoughts and fears that run through my own mind played out in theirs. I didn't want the book to end!

Tasty

Many of us think that working at a glossy magazine is glamorous. It's not. But it can be fun, especially if it's your own baby. "Bite" tells the story of a magazine writer and editor (one who is dropped by her magazine, the latter who leaves) who start their own glossy with their close friends, colleagues and hot, young interns."Bite" is a quick read, but the appeal is in the people. The characters are people we want to know and whose circle we want to join. Their world is hip and a bit incestuous. They do what us married folk miss (or missed altogether) like drinking martinis on a Tuesday night (not evening) and having sex with repairmen on housecalls. The writing, too, is smart, funny and sexy as the authors describe why true love isn't easy to find in NYC. Whether we yearn for the shmuck or forge a platonic marriage with our housemate, the romance and relationship is doomed before the first kiss. Don't think for a second that the book is weepy. While the writers show the characters' soft spots, they are still witty and at times cunning, if not ruthless.If you're looking to nosh on a good book, read "Bite".

Eagerly Awaiting

This was such a tremendously fun read. The characters' lives felt so similar to mine that it was both terrifying and comforting at the same time. Terrifying because I truly am that bachelor girl in her late 20's/early 30's living in NYC working in the media world with tons of gay friends to boot. Comforting because I must not be alone! I highly recommend this book to both the city slickers, boys and girls, as well as our surbanite friends. All will enjoy. I shall be eagerly awaiting the next book from C.J. Tosh as they simply must tell me how my life turns out!
