Life down on the farm is idyllic. The descriptions of the food alone made me crave a farmer's market. |

Mary Sue (or is that Mikey Lou?) tendencies. Wholesome and likeable. A bit too good to be true, but fun to read. |

Straight forward, bits of angst, and a hefty helping of twue wuv. Heart warming romance plot. Ends on a down note. |
"Going
Home” by Max Vos is
a book which has survived despite being banned from Amazon and ARE
for having objectionable subject matter. This story is not more
extreme nor the language more raw than other male/male or menage
romance books. It has one taboo story element (trigger
warning: incest)
which closes most people's minds against it. I understand incest can
be an upsetting or painful topic for some people, and completely
understand anyone who is sensitive regarding the subject avoiding
this title. However,
it does happen so it's not an unrealistic plot element. For those
who perhaps don't approve of the idea, but aren't immediately
traumatized by it, I recommend giving “Going
Home” a chance. It really is heartwarming and provides a
positive depiction of a male menage relationship.
I object more strongly to censorship
and retailers deciding what's appropriate for me to read than I
do to anything written in this book. In fact I'm hurrying to get this
review up before Google
deletes my blog for objectionable material so hopefully Max
Vos and “Going Home” get a wider audience. This book is worth
not only the $4 for 128 pages,
but also the hassle of having to click more than once to download it.
