Boston Boys Club News/Reviews

























"When Tommy relocates from Miami to Boston for a reporting gig at the local paper, he brings the heat with him in this frothy beach read. In his first novel, Boston Globe reporter Johnny Diaz peppers his tale of three guys looking for fun with plenty of winks and nudges at the current scene. It's a charming cocktail.'' OUT magazine

"Same-Sex and The City. In Boston Boys Club, the former reporter for The Miami Herald and current staff writer for The Boston Globe follows a trio of friends as they search for that perfect guy at an ultrahip boy bar in Boston, Club Cafe...his goal is to create archetypal characters who tug on the heartstrings and tap into that always universal search for love."

But in the end, things come together and these boys will win your heart.'' Lisa Alvarado, Blogcritics.org, Boston.com
