Why read it?
1 author picked Caregiver as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I loved this book because it’s tough, hard, and very, very real. I think it is a timeless reminder that AIDS has no cure and that in the 1990s, HIV was a death sentence. I love this author’s gritty writing; he’s a gay survivor of that era who never pulls his punches.
From Fearne's list on romance books set in the 1990s.
