Totally - Totally a page-turner

I read this book from cover to cover in a little over two days. I was completely and totally engrossed by it. Skene has captured all the flavor of the period and all the nuances of the people involved. This is a book with real heart and soul in it. I'm looking forward to his next one! I loved it!!

A beautiful book.

Gordon Skene has written a beautiful book, full of fascinating, true-to-life characters, wry humor and evocative descriptions of Los Angeles and San Francisco, especially the sections that take place in the 1960's. I was enthralled from beginning to end, and was left feeling hungry for more. Overall, it's a page-turner, a good fun read that I'm passing on to friends.

A completely wonderful look at Los Angeles in the '60's

This was what Los Angeles must've been like in the 1960's. Having grown up on the east coast, I heard about L.A. and all the stories from friends who spent time there - this is as close to those stories as it comes. The book breathes and feels and tastes the period and is wonderfully well written. It's the best I've read this year!

The Best look at life in L.A. in the 60's!

A completely engrossing book that takes place in Los Angeles (and later San Francisco) in the late 1960's and 1970's - it's a completely realistic look at life in L.A. at the time and has the extra added bonus of some three- dimensional characters that reminded me of at least a dozen people I knew. It was a total page-turner. I absolutely recommend it!
