THIS: A Simple Complex Love Story “…this is a phenomenally diverse love story that explores the early 2000s LGBTQ+ scene with a critical, yet celebratory eye. The challenges that the couple faces are unique and intriguing. Rivers seamlessly weaves time period accurate vernacular into her novel that provides an authentic mood. The prose style is light and conversational. Both Teresa and Jasmine are electrifying on their own, with quirky backstories and a well rounded cast of supportive friends.”
