      Outstanding praise for the novels of Michael Thomas Ford!

      WHAT WE REMEMBER

      “Ford knows how to weave layers of witticism, cleverness, humor and subtlety into a quilt of sorts—stirring up emotions that keep you oddly secure in knowing you’re not the only one who’s experienced them before.”

      —Instinct

      CHANGING TIDES

      “Ford bridges the gap between gay romance and mainstream fiction in his latest. A deft sense of place and a handle on romance—both Ben and Caddie’s—that’s neither sappy nor shallow will help set this one apart.”

      —Publishers Weekly

      FULL CIRCLE

      “Summer isn’t the same without hitting the beach, getting a sunburn and devouring a deliciously soapy novel. Ford knows how to draw in a reader with sex and sin.”

      —Entertainment Weekly

      “A must read for every gay man. Older readers will be reminded of where we’ve been and just how far we’ve come. Younger readers will be made more aware of recent gay history. And all will have more respect for what gay men have had to endure and how they’ve managed to overcome it.”

      —Envy Man magazine

      “An excellent summer read.”

      —Dallas Voice

      “Ford’s sprawling tale chronicles the highlights of gay history in the latter half of the 20th century.”

      —Metrosource

      “Full Circle stunningly succeeds as a great novel.”

      —We the People

      “The characters’ many brushes with homosexual history—Harvey Milk trolling for votes in a gay bar, the unfurling of the first Rainbow flag, the sexual energy of early ACT UP meetings—will resonate with gay readers.”

      —Publishers Weekly

      LOOKING FOR IT

      “An insightful and entertaining read about what we seek, and what answers we find within and without.”

      —Booklist

      “Ford handles his broad, diverse cast with amazing ease, and demonstrates a natural gift for storytelling.”

      —Bay Area Reporter

      “Give Michael Thomas Ford credit for giving us a group of identifiable characters who do not live in L.A., NYC, or Miami, but in a small town like those where most readers actually live. It’s also nice to see these characters addressing realistic differences of generation as well as spirituality, in addition to the usual mix of looking for love, dealing with internalized homophobia and creating support systems through friendships and families of choice.”

      —Instinct

      “Ford handles his broad, diverse cast with aplomb, and his knowing sense of humor and emphasis on the positive make this novel as warm and inviting as a group hug.”

      —Publishers Weekly

      “Ford has a knack for bringing together characters of all ages who share a common desire of just wanting to be loved and happy. Of all the books I reviewed this past year, this one generated the most response.”

      —We the People

      “A warm-hearted story about the importance of friendship and the miracle of connection…Ford’s fluid prose and strong storytelling deliver charming credibility.”

      —Outlook News

      “Few authors have bothered to represent gay life outside of the usual queer meccas, and Ford captures it perfectly…Readers expecting a repeat of Ford’s far sunnier Last Summer will be in for a shock, but Looking for It is a stronger, weightier product that will have readers impatiently turning pages to see how things turn out.”

      —Bay Windows (Boston)

      LAST SUMMER

      “He effectively draws his readers into the wild world of Provincetown…plenty of page-turning drama…a winner.”

      —Entertainment Weekly

      “Ford expands his repertoire with this brimful first novel about life, love and self-discovery over the course of a steamy Provincetown summer…a satisfying beach book—and a pleasant fiction debut for Ford.”

      —Publishers Weekly

      “A made-for-the-beach page-turner, complete with characters twining in and out of one another’s arms and destinies that may leave readers wishing for a wintertime sequel.”
