I agree. In terms of the Jeff/Lloyd trilogy, this may be my least favorite...
Jeff and Lloyd — especially Lloyd — seem sorta artificial and forced.
Henry is so whiny. But also real, and compassionate and adorable...
Mann magnificently captures the magic of the place. It has a real sense of specialness — which Provincetown should.
I guess the bottom line is, I wanted more... But if Mann were to write a sequel to this story, I would read it with the same veracit More...

I finally went back to (finish) reading MWLM. I started last year but got side-tracked...
I'm a bonafide fan of Mr. Mann's novels, throughly loving the first two novels in this vien, The Men From The Boys and Where The Boys Are (my favorite of the three!). Once again, WJM creates an engrossing story; in this third outing, WJM centers the story on Henry Weiner, Jeff & Lloyd's best friend...who spends the majority of the novel searching for the ellusive "Mr. Right", a common More...

An enjoyable love story that touches on some important issues about aging and marriage in the gay community. The narrator's craving for True Love was sweet and vulnerable, though I was sometimes annoyed by his shallowness.

Just finished last night, stayed up til 3am. Made me cry in a good way. about love, trust, finding oneself, commitment, the unknown, how these men loved their friends,lovers,themselves,families,how he builds his own life away from his parents. New expressions for me, a place that should be visited some day. The cover picture has meaning later on in the book.

didnt find the charecters very likable or relatable. I had met the author during Saints and Sinners and thought that he would write as interestingly as he seemed to be. Wrong.Trite story. Trite relationships.

This book was a fun quick read about live in Provincetown. I did not like it as much as Mann's earlier two novels, but it was a good summer read about the life that many of us can only imagine.
