i'm rereading for a book club :3 the beginning part of the story is still so excellent at bringing nancy’s blossoming queerness and longing to life. the emotions are so real and raw. there are many lines i vividly remembered and anticipated for this reread- and they have been just as satisfying the second time around. i love this book

i dont support all women some of yall are upper-class and willing to exploit poor people from the very marginalized groups you're a part of without a second thought.

nancy im gonna get you out of there

this book is so nana coded
