Without Sin by J. Tomas

[Ralph Gallagher]

I read this not to long ago and it's one of my favorite YA novels. It's a gay romance between two teen boys written by J.M Snyder under a pseudonym. I think it portrayed their relationship pretty accurately and realistically.

I like how it has sex, but it's by no means explicit. Also, she did a great job of having them build up to it rather than just hopping into bed together.

Have any of you read it? What did you think of it?

I haven't read this yet, Ralph, but I am really enjoying Snyder's The Powers of Love series.

I'm really glad I picked it up. I grabbed it at Fictionwise during their huge sale during Christmas. If you decide to read it, let me know and I'll send you a recommendation and you get like 15-20% off. =D

I picked up my copy then too, along with about 30 other titles, but I'll keep your offer in mind. My wish list is growing again. :D

I've finished reading Without Sin about a week ago and it was a really unique experience. First of all, because I felt really related to Jacob, as I myself was a pretty aggressive boy when I was young. Then, two things really impressed me: the way sexual encounters are portrayed gently and yet so exciting and how the narrative was able to keep me involved, craving to read more without overusing drama or getting too far from reality.

This is one of my favorite books so far. I'd recommend it to anyone looking for some heart warming book to read.

I have just discovered this wonderful author yesterday and have read a whole bunch of samples of her work. This is the next one I will go looking for.
