”to all the butches and femmes, past, present, and future”

i got this book on the first date i had with my girlfriend. to think that was all the way back in july of last year is crazy. life got in the way, and at one point i had to restart the book because i had forgotten everything that happened. but i’m so glad i recently took the time to finish it because this book is beautiful.

even though i’m not asian (i’m very much white), this book tugged and resonated with me in so many ways. the way that malinda lo writes, it makes you feel like you are her characters. you forget all about the world around you and before you know it, you’re another hundred pages in and 2 hours have passed.

i don’t want to spoil anything in this review, because it is truly such a great book that i want every lesbian to read. it truly makes you feel proud and appreciate gay history. i will for sure be reading the companion book to this one.
