Stone Butch Blues: A Novel72 reviews
Leslie Feinberg

Alyson Books, 2004

A Deeply Moving Novel
This novel/memoir chronicles the world of a working class lesbian, gay, and transgendered people from the days before Stonewall to the present. It is a classic and probably the most important book available about transgender issues. I cried reading it on the train. Feinberg is a committed communist, and some of the scenes involving worker solidarity are a contrived, but the book is well ...
  
  











  



  
First You Fall: A Kevin Connor Mystery14 reviews
Scott Sherman

Alyson Books, 2008

A dalliance with murder...
Skimming a few reviews posted here on Amazon for this book, I noted that several handled the summary portion quite nicely. I'll skip the summary, then, and speak directly to the merits of the book. I've read several historical mysteries (medieval mysteries by Sharon Kay Penman, The Alienest by Carr, Deanna Raybourn's excellent Lady Julia Grey mysteries, and others), but rarely a modern mystery ...

Wet: True Lesbian Sex Stories17 reviews

Alyson Books, 2002

Title Says It All
This book is great I loved all the stories. I bought an erotica book prior to this but I wasn't too pleased with it. The stories were made up and some submitted by men. I don't want to read about some strange man's fantasy. This book was really great though. I descretely brought it into school and read it during my study halls... It made my day again and again with every page I turned. If you're ...
  
  











  



  
Heather Has Two Mommies: 10th Anniversary Edition (Alyson Wonderland)35 reviews
Leslea Newman

Alyson Books, 2000

Two Mommies
It is a good book. It would be nice if it had colours and was not only black and white but still one should definitely buy it. It is important to grow our children whether the parents are gay or not with the open mind that one needs to be a human being.
  
  











  



  
Untangling the Web: Sex, Porn, and Fantasy Obsession in the Internet Age2 reviews
Robert Weiss, Jennifer P. Schneider

Alyson Books, 2006

So helpful toward understanding online sex and addiction problems...
Untangling the Web was written to help men and women who struggle with online sexual problems and cybersex addiction. It is offered as a clear and non-judgemental path out of the confusion and heartache that sex addiction brings those with the problem and those who love them.

Michael Willhoite

Alyson Books, 1994

Perfect!
As a child of gay parents, I wish I had this book when I was growing up in the 70's. !!! It is perfect! Thanks soooo Much! Hopefully, we'll soon be able to embrace love and do away with our violence praising culture....
  
  











  



  
Paws & Effect: The Healing Power of Dogs9 reviews
Sharon Sakson

Alyson Books, 2007

The healing power of dogs
I savored every moment of this book. Sharon Sakson enthusiam for her subject comes trough and makes the pages fly. Parts of it almost read like a triller-- you can't wait to find out what happen next. She combines a ton of fascinating research with wonderful storie of incredible dogs. The book isn't exactly was I expetect-I thought it would be a bunch of stories about therapy dgs. but it is much ...
  
  











  



  
Murder in the Rue Ursulines: A Chanse MacLeod Mystery2 reviews
Greg Herren

Alyson Books, 2008

Take a "Chanse" on a great read by the master of gay mystery!
Like many residents in post-Katrina New Orleans, Chanse MacLeod is still a bit "shell shocked" by the experience, but keeping up his private investigations business, with help from friends and referrals. One such referral, to track down the source of some threatening e-mails, develops into a murder investigation. The target of the e-mails is Freddy Bliss, the male half of a Hollywood A-list ...
  
  











  



  
First-Timers: True Stories of Lesbian Awakening5 reviews
Rachel Kramer Bussel

Alyson Books, 2006

Feeling hot hot hot
This is a great anthology of truly diverse stories of lesbian erotica. Whether you're looking for a sweet romantic story, or something a bit (or a lot) kinkier, you're sure to find it here. One of the things I liked most about this book was the way it defined "first time." What is a first time? Is it the first time you have sex, or the first time you do something a bit different from the norm, or ...
  
  











  



  
Up All Night: Adventures in Lesbian Sex18 reviews

Alyson Books, 2004

Spotted a super author in the table of contents...
...which led me to buy this anthology. I enjoyed Therese Szymanski's story `In The Mood' tremendously and then enjoyed 30 other stories by a terrific list of authors including: Alison Tyler Tristan Taormino Rachel Kramer Bussel Diana Cage Amie M. Evans Jean Roberts Stacy Bias
  
  











  



  
The Q Guide to The Golden Girls (Pop Culture Out There Guide)10 reviews
Jim Colucci

Alyson Books, 2006

Girls are back (they have never went away)!
Nice book for all true fans of the Golden Girls. Concentrates though too much on the "Girls" meaning in gay culture etc. trivial information. But even I as a devoted fan got a lot new information about the history and especially the creation of the show.
  
  











  



  
Dynamic Duos: The Alpha/Beta Key to Unlocking Success in Gay Relationships8 reviews
Keith W. Swain

Alyson Books, 2008

Outstanding, Eye-opening, and Effective
I was caught off-guard by Dynamic Duos. I expected your standard gay dating/mating book, but it is nothing of the type. The author examines gay relationships from a completely new and fresh angle, using scientific research into the mating behaviors of gay men to reveal the dating patterns that result in successful long-term gay relationships. This insight alone would have made my purchase ...
  
  











  



  
Ten Smart Things Gay Men Can Do to Improve Their Lives30 reviews
Joe Kort

Alyson Books, 2003

Extremely useful
Any gay guy looking to enrich his life and relationships, and better understand how the past can affect present behavior, will benefit from this book. Written in a down to earth style, Kort manages to be informative without being preachy, and it's clear that he cares deeply about men who care about other men.
  
  











  



  
Living Two Lives: Married to a Man and In Love with a Woman19 reviews
Joanne Fleisher

Alyson Books, 2005

***** Love is a Four-Letter Word That We Can't Live Without *****
As a psychotherapist, I can say that the topic of this book is timely and a most welcome addition to the literature on it. For despite the untold depth of despair that our sexual-orientation causes in ourselves, partners, family, friends, and society-at-large, we have not seen anything yet, as we say, nor do we see the upside to this revolution. In fact, the primary task for each of us is to STOP ...
  
  











  



  
10 Smart Things Gay Men Can Do to Find Real Love2 reviews
Joe Kort

Alyson Books, 2006

Excellent book
I've been doing workshops for a men's group here in New York and this book as well as Mr. Kort's previous text have been excellent resources. Not only the scenarios but the root causes of why men develop as they do in relationship to their sexuality are excellent. The referencing to Erik Erikson and Harville Hendrix (tests I also utilize) as well as the specific application of the tomes to ...
  
  











  



  
Cruise Control: Understanding Sex Addiction in Gay Men11 reviews
Robert Weiss

Alyson Books, 2005

Every gay man should read this book.
I am proud to have written this book. When I went through my own past struggles with addiction, there was nothing for me to read that offered the kind of information and direction that truly reflected my own struggle. I feel that this work really offers any gay man struggling with his sexual behavior - a real chance to evaluate his concerns and figure out how to get help. I hope it helps you or ...
  
  











  



  
Broadway Nights: A Romp of Life, Love, and Musical Theatre25 reviews
Seth Rudetsky

Alyson Books, 2007

More, more, more!
Filled with true anecdotes and insight dish, Broadway Nights is the perfect book for anyone who likes Broadway. Watching the main character grow was a delight. And the gossip is pure fun. I want another installment. These characters live in a universe that is too wonderful to let fade away.
  
  











  



  
Is It a Date or Just Coffee?: The Gay Girl's Guide to Dating, Sex, and Romance12 reviews
Mo Brownsey

Alyson Books, 2002

Winner of the WordWeaving Award for Excellence
Forty years of heterosexual living did not prepare me for the dilemma of discerning IS IT A DATE OR JUST COFFEE when I started dating women. Well, perhaps dating was too strong a word since it always seems to turn out to be coffee. When straight gals meet straight guys, they know what to expect. With gay-gal dating, they seem to be showering together before reaching a consensus as to whether or ...
  
  











  



  
Curious Wine: A Novel62 reviews
Katherine V. Forrest

Alyson Books, 2002

A Classic
I read this book only recently and although it is a bit dated because of being published in 1983, it is also what I would consider a classic. I think it set the stage for lesbian fiction to also be literary fiction. It is a subtle yet powerful story of what happens when two women find themselves attracted to one another. I only wish I had found this book in 1983 when I was married and raising ...
