Hypnotic Read

Lisa Mason's Summer of Love and The Golden Nineties both have this quality - you want to reread them as soon as you've read them. Her writing conveys an abiding love of San Francisco, and interesting bits of California history are woven into the storylines. The writing is so compelling that you feel as though time travel were a possibility. I hope she writes more of these San Francisco fantasies, and I'm sorry to see these are evidently out of print!
