Girls Can Kiss Now

“But nothing I've worked on in my career nor in my life has been as rewarding, as fulfilling, or has made me feel even a fraction as good as it feels to be in love with Emma. Maybe I love my stupid little life, and I just want a house and kids and a vegetable garden and pets named after fictional characters and to learn how to pickle and to crochet and to be love. Maybe I don't need to be special anymore. Maybe I can let that go.”

**Jill Gutowitz, you have gutted me! As someone who self-identifies as both queer and annoyingly into pop culture, you have seen, heard, and affirmed me in ways colorful, comedic, and concise. I want to be your friend, I want to *be you, I want to follow you on every single publication and platform from this point forward. Thank you for this! Thank you for all of this!

(Oh, and this book is officially instated into the lesbian canon starting now!)
