Holy Cow

Revisado: 12-04-24

I had no idea the scandal behind go ask Alice. As a daughter, granddaughter, niece, to many people drowning in addiction, I really connected with Alice's story. It's both isolating and heart breaking to know the evil that was truly behind it. However I am very grateful to have learned the truth, and wow I had no idea about Sybil!

Deeply moving

Revisado: 12-02-24

Absolutely a stunning novel, a must read for all multi generational Americans. This sheds so much light on so much pain, it is eye opening. The show holds no flame to the book, this is eons better. The biggest complaint people have said was about accuracy, however the author makes it extremely clear this is oral history being resold, it's as accurate as he could make it but there are some stitched together bits. Either way, I come out of this being proud to have my own ancestors also from the Gambia

So good

Revisado: 10-31-24

Most of the stories are wonderful, engaging, and dark. A few are too Sci-Fi, confusing, undetailed, and boring. but it's easy to skip those reached things. Some of the stories I wish got darker and scarier like the Montgomery Bus ride, a longer more evil story with the same end result would have been devoured. But still an amazing anthology

Not Sara's best work

Revisado: 10-30-24

Do not go into this with the expectations of Fingersmith, Affinity, etc. It's a good story but the end is like a wet paper towel, doesn't work and feels icky. It felt like there was quite a few chapters missing.

So Rushed

Revisado: 10-23-24

there's very little back story, the romance weaves through different relationships jn a way where it seems people are polygamous but it's not supposed to be? it made me too confused to continue reading. To unrealistic of what sticks of the time would've held for sapphic lovers, no drama or worry. As for the digital voice over it's not bad but feels too sped up, in places where there should be a pause especially for emphasis, the digital voice rolls right over it full steam ahead. I'm sure there is a way to edit the recording and tweak it before publishing.

Truly is Bittersweet

a very good novel, however there is a lot of times where you have to infer and use deductive reasoning.

Swift fans will love

Revisado: 10-14-24

This to me reads very much like a Taylor Swift fanfiction, but make TS a lesbian. It's cute and fluffy, I did really enjoy learning about Asexuality through this book though. I haven't seen any Ace characters in my other books, so this was a pleasantly shocking surprise. PS thanks for the time stamp to skip anything too steamy!

it's so cute and fluffy!

Revisado: 10-01-24

oh I loved this book! Definitely my new favorite from Jae. It was so sweet and innocent and fluffy, it makes my heart melt. I had my own negative assumptions about how this might go given the summary, but I should've know Jae wouldn't write anything derogatory. I myself am a late bloomer lesbian, so I could really resonate with the fears and nerves depicted. It's a very sweet story that gives me lots of hope.

Clarity

Revisado: 08-19-24

I grew up loving Memoirs of a Geisha, but unfortunately there was a lot of mistranslation and misunderstood concepts that this book cleared up extremely well. A beautiful Memoir, I sincerely enjoyed
