A review by razishiri
Annie on My Mind by Nancy Garden
2.0
Another interesting foray into "classic" lesbian literature. Annie gets points for being ahead of its time, but Garden's typical, though sweet love story would not hold up to the diverse and talented writers available today. The writing is decent, and the old-fashioned tone of the romance can be charming, but I was most interested by the modern interview with the author at the end.
And yes, if you're wondering, this obsession with LGBTQ culture will die down. Eventually.
Edit: Okay, maybe I was a little dismissive of the book's content. I enjoyed all the school scenes, and the characterization of the head disiplinarian woman/school bureaucracy struck me as both original and accurate.
