"On page 76, I wish I hadn't fead high femme camp antics before reading this, because I think this book is well written and uses the subjectivity of the MC as a fascinating lens. Unfortunately I hated the essay (it feels like the author is living an entirely parallel life to mine) and also the book is exhausting even if well written" — Nov 29, 2025 10:40PM
