Read this in January and re-read it for a class. God I have so much to say this book is one of the craziest I’ve ever read. I love lesbians.

Qué bien tener referentes bolleros y disidentes en general. Mi yo de 30 años está feliz de seguir descubriendo, mi yo de 15 hubiera anhelado haberlo hecho antes.

This was a really beautifully written book. Very easy to imagine everything going on in the story. I had a lot of issues with the main character though. She was not very likeable and kind of frustrating.

Close to perfection from a debut novel. I am thrilled to have six unread Sarah Waters novels waiting for me in the halls of queer excellence.

A pretty fast paced book chronicling the life of Nancy from the time she’s 17/18 until her mid-20s realizing her sexuality and gender identity in late 1880s-early 1890s England.

To be honest I was quite disappointed. I was expecting a sweet lovestory between two girls, and I found myself immersed in a few quite disturbing scenarios. I mean, the first and third parts are ok, but the second!! Decidedly, this book did not do it for me.
