A Short History of Queer Women by Kirsty Loehr

funny informative lighthearted fast-paced

3.5

This book got me right out of a dreadful reading slump. It’s 200 pages of queer gossip (or history). The sources aren’t always clear and I wonder how much of it is just interpreted but we’ll probably never know. Sometimes I wished for more dates, years, any sense of time. It’s quite humorous though and I really enjoyed reading it. 

It’s more of an entertaining book than an educational one but for sure good starting point into the history of queer women. I’d not recommend if you’re already a master of queer history.
