Out in the Deep (Out in College, #1) by Lane Hayes
Out in the Deep by Lane Hayes
154 pages
How it Fits: Caipi's Recs
Read: 21 Oct
Rating: 3 stars
Review: I'm not a huge fan of Lane Hayes, but they write a nice "first time gay" romance. There's some water polo in Out in the Deep as well, which is unusual.

The audio version of Out in the Deep is nicely performed by Michael Dean.

MountainKat | 32111 comments Here is your next task!

Task 4 - 16. Read a minimum of 750 pages in books tagged/shelved as children.

Books selected for this task need to be tagged with 'child', 'children' or other variations of the word. Combo tags will be allowed in context, 'no kids please' would not work. Tags like ‘childrens’ or other tags that indicate the book is for children and opposed to with children are not allowed for this task. Please include a link to the top shelves page of your qualifying tag along with the number of tags and the page top shelves page number. This information makes it easier for me to find if the link is broken or the tag moves - and both often happen! Remember to use the first edition Kindle page count!

Trio | 2833 comments I do like to do stuff!!!! My son and I went to this historic estate on Long Island yesterday because they were allowing dogs for the weekend. It was gorgeous - one of those wealthy families who had a huge home and gardens and left it all to a historic preservation group. It was wonderful - all the fall colors.

I listened to a book today, I'll add it now.
