Funny little book about lesbian life, of course very stereotypical, but that's where the humor comes from. I won't say I didn't recognize myself at all, or most of my friends, but certainly a tongue in cheek read.

A cute little essay collection that doesn't rly go deep on anything just v casual and apolitical and mostly about little relatable relationship/ cohabitation tidbits. It was fine, charming in parts and funny in other parts but did not blow my mind at any point. I don't have much to say, it was a breeze to read and the illustrations were funny as well, a nice touch. A v particular like archetypal lesbian perspective but that's the fun of it.

A quick easy read, refreshingly apolitical and a glimpse into decades’ past.

I enjoyed it. Read it within a few hours and it was cute. I giggled a few times but I wouldn't say that it's a collection of humorous essays. Still, a nice read.

A fun little read. I liked the illustrations and there were a few positive messages I enjoyed, and especially the fawning over Rita Mae Brown.

Worth the read if you get the chance.

A lovely little read that I picked up from my local book store. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and it's all written from the experiences of the author who published it in the 1980s which makes for the quite the interesting perspective being a lesbian in the 2010s.
