Why isn't this novel rated higher? I thought it was great. It's hard not to compare it to "The Planets" but they're both good in their own seperate ways. Check it out!

Stars in Your Eyes

Characters undergo epiphanies in tatoo parlors and on abandoned railroad bridges. An artist can't get her work taken seriously -- and then her work is taken by an ex-mentor.

Characters and scenes -- particularly the funny sex scenes -- will stay with your for a long time to come
