The Lesbiana's Guide to Catholic School

the moment i laid eyes on this book, i knew that i had to read it. as a bi mexican woman, i'm always looking for representation–ya know, a mirror instead of a window. and it really did that, i was able to relate to the main character's struggle, to cesar's struggle; i felt really connected. i figured i'd be giving this book a full five stars, but alas i only gave it 3. it had nothing to do with the content; it was the writing that fell a little flat for me. the beginning half seemed a bit all over the place with the latter half being a bit stronger. i still felt like the emotional depth didn't always hit the mark because it was rushed. at some points i even felt like it was a far-fetched dream that it happened the way that it did. i don't mean that it needed to be sad and miserable at the end, that yami and bo shouldn't have gotten their happy ending, but where it tried to get real it quickly put in place a fairy tale.
