ok i still haven’t finished it it’s very long but this is from the book! it’s an anthology all about femmes with essays and retellings and poetry (some of them are sad, some funny, some spicy, some sweet). this one was a love letter a butch wrote to her femme partner 🥲
This book is so good!!! just started it last night and now im almost done with it !!!
It was the last book katherine min wrote before she died!!! It’s a genius book that follows the story of three people :
- Kyoko a japanese american punk rock singer who is grieving her mom’s death ;
- Daniel a violinist who is faced with confronting his past & many relationships;
- and Alma, the love of daniel’s life, a korean american cello prodigy , who at the end of her life ponders over if she was ever truly loved.
insane and beautiful and honest and hilarious
today i spent an hour on chat gpt trying to find the name of this book that i thought i‘d lost or lent out by accident. Ai couldn’t figure it out but later when my friend came over she pulled it immediately off the shelf. i blame my hangover…. cool kinda smutty novel exploring power dynamics between folks in an open relationship… exploring queer sexuality. good for bisexuals feeling at odds with their identity. idk honestly i need to reread but i know i loved it and was really upset at the idea of having lost it or never being able to find it again
if you are on this app you will probably like this very short very readable novella about a woman falling in love (?) with another woman for the first time…perfect summer book, perfect book to give a lover or friend when you’re done 👩❤️💋👩
being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about
HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳
unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!!
if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹
