Didn't Enjoy This Book,
By JazzNU "Jazz" (Philadelphia, PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
I really didn't enjoy this book. The only things I really liked about this book were the sexual chemistry between the characters and that the little boy was adorable. With that exception, I found the story and the relationship lacking. She also used what I believe was Jamaican dialect through too much of the book, too often, and it lost me. Using the dialect made it hard to follow, those parts could have been key in drawing me into the book, but it didn't. Lastly, Ms. Esdaile makes attempts to make the characters more "hip" by using slang, which she has done in other novels too, and it just didn't work for me. This book may work for some, but it just doesn't for me.This was my second or third attempt at reading Ms. Esdaile and I finally gave her up after reading this book, which is a shame since she sets most of her books in Philadelphia and it's always nice to read stories set in towns I'm familiar with.

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!,
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
Love lessons tells the story of Trevor who is a music video director and Corey who is his son's(Miquel)fifth grade teacher. Her love and compassion for his son causes him to look at her as more than a teacher. The way the relationship between the two develops is so phenomenal! They were definitely on the same level and were All the while, Trevor is dealing with the fact that he is fed up with being on the road and knows that he has to become a full time father to Miquel and father figure to his college student cousin and teenaged son and daughter of his sister, who has been Miquel's caretaker while he's been away working. Although Trevor is almost forty years old, "Love Lessons" is still a coming of age story about a someone who matures and takes on the responsibility being a father, a lover and most of all, a man. I loved this book!

Didn't really like,
By "July Lady" (MS United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Lessons (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the love story of Corey and Trevor. Corey is Trevor's son teacher. At first Corey thinks Trevor is a bad father, since he had been out of the child's life. I liked the part's where Trevor spent with his son and his nephrew, but I didn't care for Trevor and Corey's relationship, I felt that it didn't consist of anything but sleeping together.
