  • yeah it’s very millennial, but that’s fine??? she’s literally talking about queer women in modern pop culture. lmao. but as a genzennial i feel like i’m close enough where it’s not too cringe??? u know?
  • overuse of Black slang (aka what gay men have already co-opted…)— her voice comes off as very white woman
  • i def disagree with her opinion that her speculating about taylor swifts sexuality is fine bc the intent isn’t bad… it’s none of your business we’re not owed any personal info from celebrities 
  • yearning 🥺 it’s hard to be a queer woman
  • the reflections on her emotions as she was beginning to understand her sexuality… i feel that
  • the end of the book (and the acknowledgments) made me tear up bc she loves her girlfriend so much and i love MY gf so much 😭
