Can't believe I waited so long to read this one.  What a beautiful cosy queer fantasy about belonging and love.  There aren't enough nerdy superlatives.  Listened to the end of the epilogue walking home from work and grinned like a loon. It felt great!  Minor cursing and I loved hearing "git" in an American book. The characters were all so loveable, especially children Lucy and Chauncey. Linus was a lot like me - I look forward to bursting my bubble and finding colour.
