I’m very surprised about the amount of cussing, innuendos, references to sex and affairs in this book (Mildred complains about her ex’s “hussy” mistress parading around with no bra 😭; Mildred’s friend Mrs. Gessler advising her to date/sleep with Wally so she get her financial worries taken care of) . The Hays Code censored A LOT in the movie adaptation. Seeing the differences is really fascinating lol
