Summary: Clean Writing, Captivating Romance
Comment: Great book by newcomer Georgia Beers. The characters of Melanie and Taylor are fully realized and compelling enough to cause me to read this in one sitting. I liked that the story took place over a period of time--and after some angst and indecision, especially on the part of Taylor.
MJ Lowe has written a thorough review below, and I don't want to repeat her already insightful comments. I'll just add two points: 1) the writing style is excellent in a very well edited book; and 2) it's great to see sexy but realistic love scenes.
I highly recommend this one. It rates right up there with TROPICAL STORM by Melissa Good, NONE SO BLIND by LJ Maas, and MIRRORS by Marianne K Martin.

Summary: Very Disappointing...
Comment: Reading Turning the Page by Georgia Beers was like reading very mediocre fan-fiction. The main character, Mary Sue - I mean Melanie is beautiful and giving and perfect and EVERYBODY loves her. And I do mean everybody. (I am giving nothing away that you can't get from the information on the back of the book - so, spoiler-free) The love interest, Taylor falls for her immediately (of course) as does Taylor's recently widowed father (of course). The stereotypical, earth mother, lesbian-next-door becomes her mentor and takes her under her wing immediately (of course) and on her first trip to a gay bar a gorgeous woman buys our shy, beautiful Mary Sue a drink (of course). Throw in Taylor's bitchy ex, Melanie's selfish cousin for some angst and WAY too many pop culture references (including a semi-obsession with Xena) and there you have it - second-rate fanfic - except it's with characters you don't know and don't care about.
Rating: 5
Summary: Great Read
Comment: Saw alot of my own experiences and feelings here. Read it in 2 nights. I felt the characters were totally believable and the storyline had a ring of truth to it. I look forward to the next book by Georgia Beers.
