    “This is my current purse book, it’s a tough read at some points, but overall if you like books about messy lesbians this is the book for you. The small stories compiled in this book are so nostalgic to the younger gay scene ( ages 19-27 ) I have to giggle at this book because it’s so relatable, in a way either this is a situation i have been in or i have heard of through a friend. I find the book really fun and entertaining especially being from a big city with a huge lesbian community. I do like to keep quick and easy reads in my purse incase I find myself somewhere needing to pass the time. ( mostly on the train)”
