Title: Quirky Novel Not "for" Lesbians
Review: This was an enjoyable quick read, very funny. The characterization was fresh and interesting and the descriptions of L.A.'s wasteland truly amusing.It was just not at all what I thought I was buying based on it being offered by Amazon as a "lesbian" book. Sure there are lesbians in it, but the categorization of it as "lesbian" at this site has always meant to me written by lesbians, for lesbian readers *and* featuring prominent lesbian protagonists, not just side characters. Saying this is a "lesbian" book would be like saying Basic Instinct is a "lesbian" movie because the female murderer was bisexual.So I'm not at all sure why Amazon *features* this novel on its list of books recommended to lesbian readers. That aspect of the story is about 20% of the novel; all the other novels on the Amazon list run 80-100% about, by for and concerning lesbians.
Is the review positive or negative?
