Basketball Jones by E. Lynn Harris

Enjoyed this a lot.
It's refreshing to read a story of POC queer men that feels like any other story.
Wish I could have read this back in 2009 when it first came out, I would have def appreciated it.
It's spicy and a little scandalous without going over the top and the characters and complicated information is handled with nuanced without feeling like it's trying too hard.
Cant wait to read more E. Lynn Harris.

A classic E Lynn Harris book. We didn't know much about men being on the DL until his books. Read years and years ago and its still a good story.

I love this Soap Oprea but certain plot points were predictable and the ending could be better. One thing for sure is that I will be checking out his other stuff
