Synopsis

In his wild and addictive follow-up to Gulliver Takes Manhattan, author Justin Luke Zirilli revisits a single epic night in the life of Gulliver Leverenz; this time through the eyes of six of Gully’s closest companions. There’s Marty, Gully’s ex-boyfriend, who gets a shot at a breakthrough role that could propel him straight to Broadway; hotheaded Brayden, who copes with a breakup by carving a path of blistering revenge across the city; bickering exes Servando and Rowan, for whom a subway breakdown ignites a powder keg of drama and discovery; Gully’s former best friend Todd, whose job as a gay nightlife promoter is turning out to be anything but glamorous; and go-go boy Chase, finally facing some hard truths about his life—and trying to cope with his harsh reality. Enrapturing, adventurous, and chaotic, Gulliver Takes Five gives readers an exclusive all-access pass to Gay New York for one rough, sexy, and unforgettable night on the town.

About Justin Luke Zirilli

Justin Luke Zirilli is the co-director and head promoter of BoiParty.com, a New York-based gay nightlife events company. He and his business partner, Alan Picus, throw weekly dance parties around New York City, and larger events across the United States. In addition to event planning, Justin feeds his addiction to social media as the creator of Gorgeous, Gay and Twenty-Something, a private international Facebook group; as the New York correspondent of the national gay talk show, The Swish Edition; and by moonlighting as a social media and new business consultant. When he isn’t glued to his computer screen, or traversing NYC’s gay party scene, he spends his time in Hell’s Kitchen, playing PlayStation and watching Battlestar Galactica with his boyfriend, Joe.

Goodreads review by Theo

Actually, I rate this 3.5 stars. This sequel is interesting, but not as involving as Gulliver Takes Manhattan. It tells the tale of what happens to "the crew" the night Gulliver gives up porn and vanishes a second (or is it a third?) time. All the stories are told in first person, which is quite a f......more

Goodreads review by KEN

Everyone has a story The question is does it get told. I LOVE both books. Life has a way of showing only then shiny bright side. Not the underbelly that is scarred and imperfect. Often we strive and are jealous of others we perceive have it all. And in that we fail to see the longing for our life. It......more


Quotes

“If you haven’t read Gulliver Takes Manhattan, stop right now and do so. You’ve read it now? Good. Now you’re ready for Gulliver Takes Five. It’s not so much a sequel as it is a companion book. And yes, you can read it, enjoy it, and love without having read the [first book]. But if you, like me, have read and loved the first book, this book will illuminate the characters and stories that you, like me, have already devoured…I’m already ready for the third.” Q Magazine
