Free Still Side By Side: A Diary Of Making It Big In The City Ebooks Online
Sex and romance: The life of Evan and Rick In volume one of Mioki's A Side by Side the comic artist took us on a journey into the life of Evan and Rick: Best friends since they were kids, we saw them stumbling right into a hot love affair which ended happily with big love. Meanwhile, the two cuties live together in the city. The fact that both of them have sex with other men from time to time-whether together or alone-doesn't harm their relationship. On the contrary, it heats up their passion for each other. STILL SIDE BY SIDE offers hot sex on every occasion again, as well as a lot of sugar for our romantic hearts. Love can be so beautiful.

I loved the first book by Mioki and when I heard he was writing a new book the suspense was almost unbearable. It was well worth the wait! Mioki's books are a fun mix of sex and story with unbelievably stunning background artwork. Not only is every character fully 'fleshed' out, but there is a great story line and each panel is drawn like artwork should be, fully realized. While I think it's a good idea to read the first book as it makes this story richer, it's not necessary to understand the story line. Rick and Evan the main characters, are young and in love and of course they have lots of sex. That life, that's real life. I love that we often have little breaks in the story for sex, sometimes a snippet and sometimes long, hot, let's do every position we can think of, sex. There are other characters as well and we find out more about them and they generally get to have some sex too. The first book was getting to know Rick and Even, this one is more about their relationship to each other and their friends."Still Side By Side" is more of an adventure story; foreign lands, big ships and private islands. There are even some fun and sexy guest stars. Midnight Man drops in and the Manhattan Prairie Dogs provide a little entertainment. Intrigued!? Well you should be. Buy this book. Buy the first book "Side By Side" too. Settle down in a comfy chair for some fun, frolic, adventure and lots of love.
I loved the first book "Side by Side..." by Mioki,I thought it was a bittersweet, yet very erotic story of love and loss. Some critics will say Mioki's books are "just gratuitous gay porn". I disagree with these critics, the sex scenes in the book seem organic and make sense within the context of the story. As with the first book this is about exploring questions in relationships. Is hot sex enough to keep a relationship going? Will age and/or body type differences negatively affect a relationship? How does money or lack thereof affect a relationship? I was really glad to see that there is more diversity in this book in terms of age and ethnicity than in the last book. Also, I like that the elder characters in the book do not fit the negative stereotypes of older gay men nor are they merely muscle tops with grey hair added. The characters are all likable people with the exception of Charlie who becomes unpleasant after awhile. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a feel-good gay erotic comic.I should mention that having the first book is important to understanding the sequel and thank you very much Mioki for your beautifully illustrated continuation of a lovely story.
I skipped the first 'coming out' Side by Side and am very pleased with this sequel book. I love good illustrations and page after page does not disappoint. However, this may not be everyone's cup of tea since it doesn't go for the hyper-exaggerated facial, body parts and cum-splashed pages with many fantasy-adventure genre comic novels. Some may consider this book boring but its never tame nor static image-wise. Its well drawn and graphically very sexy as one would expect in 2-D porn and moreover, genitalia is welcoming true-to-life. The storylines (including the brief encounters with additional characters) are life-driven realistic and entertaining, but without the messy drama or conflict of reality TV. It all begins and ends with lead characters, Evan and Rick anchoring the book's steamy sex scenes and heart-warming romance. A high recommendation!
This is a terrific follow up to "Side by Side". Rick and Evan carry on their adventures in the big city and more importantly are enjoying each other and each other's bodies even more than in the first book. Mioki's art work is exquisite as he lovingly portrays the boys and their friends; his characters always seem more lifelike and the situations more realistic than most of his contemporaries in the field. While the sex scenes are plentiful and graphic there is something sweet and gentle about his work and a charm which makes us all feel a part of the goings on in this comprehensive and enjoyable story. Beautifully drawn, this is gay erotica (in deference to gay porn!) at its best.
Other reviewers have already said everything positive I would have said. This is a book that will be read over and over, at least around here. It's a deliciously and beautifully rendered "as it should be" love story. Makes good feelings deep inside where we hide our perfect world!That said, I have an observation to make. In low light conditions there is a nearly miraculous transformation of a totally great job of printing into an largely unreadable, pixelated wonderland. So, the revelation here is: Don't try to read this book in the dark! Apparently, in low light conditions the rods take over, And they basically, are black and white only a low resolution. The cones (color perception) in the macula do not receive enough light to function properly. You actually see a different picture in low-light conditions than what you would usually see. Just another near useless, though, hopefully, interesting observation. ;-)
This is a high quality hardback 'Comic Book' for the gay man. It is formatted like a comic book......pictures and text.But it's no kiddies book. This is an 'X' Rated Gay Erotic Book.The drawings are real nice. Mioki is very talented.Like all three of Mioki's books, they were censored in Japan, but are now available for us in ALL their glory.This is a fun book for yourself or as a gift.
