4.0

I think I enjoyed this book overall but it is quite dated. I liked Molly, the pacing, and overall story. I did not like the attitude about race, gender, and the very weird take on butches. It is an easy to read classic and I can see how it got there, but mostly I just wanted read it so next time I am in the bar named after it, I can say I did ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
