I learned a lot I did not know about the 80s culture of our town, Grand Rapids, MI, in this one!

This short story was hilarious. I've never heard the term before and I loved it. I relate quite well. I'd definitely recommend this as it's hilarious and well written.

Here’s what this book is about:”In her love letter to her gay “boyfriends,” New York Times bestselling author Wednesday Martin shows just how an unconditional—and nontraditional—romance transformed the life of a teenage outsider forever. As an awkward high schooler, Wednesday struggled to find her place in Grand Rapids. Until a handsome senior encouraged her to believe how talented, smart, and wonderfully different she was. Naturally, Wednesday fell for him…He was falling, too. For another boy. Yet this one-sided crush proved life altering, paving the way for a string of “boyfriends” who offered Wednesday something deeper than physical connection.”
I borrowed this book from Prime Reading. This is the second story from a short story collection. This book was interesting and it made me think about what it would be like to have gay guy friends but I didn’t really like this book as much as the first story.

"He had raised the bar and raised the stakes. I wanted all men to make me feel the way A had made me feel, and I wanted all guys to be more like than unlike him. They had to laugh at my jokes and admire my mind and understand and appreciate nonconformity. They had to care about books and be able to talk about everything. They had to celebrate femininity, to worship it—to not just want girls."
GOSH. I felt that. Actually, I feel it right now and it's horrible.
On the other hand, the essay is so honest and beautiful and most important, it give me hope.

I wanted to like this one, but it fell flat. Good enough for a free read.
