We Could Be So Good

We Could Be So Good, in Cat Sebastian tradition, is a historical queer novel - set in New York in the late 1950s.

I really liked this book, but not as much as the Kit Webb and Marian Hayes novels. I really can't put my finger on what it actually is, because as a story this one is far stronger, has more depth and the characters feel richer. But as something to be enjoyed, I much prefer the others. Perhaps the struggles of queer folk in the 50s in NY seem a bit too close in time and make it feel way more real.

Either way, I did really enjoy this book. The characters were really nice, especially Andy. I kept comparing this novel to His Girl Friday, and I keep seeing Andy as being played by Cary Grant. We Could Be So Good is really sweet novel.
