Review
"Nina LaCour’s Everything Leads to You, just out last month and the AfterEllen Book Club selection for May, was hands down one of the sweetest lesbian love stories I’ve experienced in a while, and that includes books, TV, movies, what have you. It was part love letter to LA, part mystery, and part sweeping romance of first love." AfterEllen.com
