This book was ok, but the passive writing style didn't work for me. Everything felt a bit muted -I wanted the public sex to be sleazier, the love to be more intense, the fear/shame to be stronger.
I also felt disappointed with the setting - if I read a story about a different era I want to feel like I've been transported back in time - if it wasn't for the mention of the Vietnam war, I might have found myself wondering why they didn't go looking for sex on the internet like any normal person!
That said, I liked the story enough to finish it (I have the attention span of a gnat, so believe me, the author must have done something right!) - the characters were likeable enough, I just really wished the vibrancy setting had been turned up a few notches.
