Spencer writes the way Daniel loves--wholeheartedly, with a superabundance of energy. If there's a fulsome side to his gift--he doesn't hesitate to produce a line like "He wants to hold her in the moonlight"--it's a small price to pay for the complicated pleasures of a book in which love not only conquers all but also imposes victor's terms. Spencer is like that waterfall on the cover. He may produce a bit of gush, but in what he does there is a power of the kind that spins turbines...

Hemingway begins by declaring: "Parts of the fashion industry stink, and I'm getting the air freshener out." But what we get is pretty stale...
...ability to look past his musical talent and right at his ass, which is as goddamn tight as it was 20 years ago, when he released “Runaway.” I love Jon because of the way he looked in painters’ pants in Moonlight and Valentino and in his khaki lieutenant uniform in U-571. I especially love him because he was in the thirteenth episode of the second season of “Sex and the City.” And in that, he looked better than good. The moral of the story? Looks...
