Dave’s thinking is reminiscent of all teens that age who are trying to get their hands on condoms without it being obvious what they’re going to do with them once they get ‘em. I really liked Dave and Billy from the moment I first met them in the coffee shop, as Dave is eyeballing “The Basket” of rainbow condoms sitting on the counter. On Dave’s first day of school, he meets Billy Henderson, a computer geek, and quickly these two become best friends. Even though Dave’s family still loves him, they felt it was safer for him to live with his cool Aunt Lisa in a more gay friendly city than to take another chance that he be seriously hurt by the small minded homophobes who lurk in his small, Podunk town. I love her style of writing and love where her stories take my imagination, so with this in mind, when I first spotted Coffee Shops and Condoms, with its unusual title…well, I just had to give it a read.Īfter coming out, Dave Preston has been relocated to Asheville, North Carolina. Review: I consider Eden Winters one of my favorite authors. Blurb: Two teenaged boys, an unlimited supply of condoms, and too much time on their hands.
